Wildlife / Animals nominee

After 8 days of waiting and trying with various groups of elephants, things finally fell into place. Everything came together as I had envisioned it - Elephants walking through the grass in a single file, spaced out evenly, coming at me at a slight curve, first elephant with a decent set of tusks, lead elephant flapping its ears at the right moment, a cloudy day, no other photographers disturbing the elephants so that they come relatively close to me and a few other things... :) Image created in Amboseli national park in Kenya.
