Description

Handheld f7.1, 1/30th, 300m
Male elephant at sunset at the hippo pool, Moremi, Botswana and yes, you can see hippos in the pool just to the right of the elephant.
This picture was never going to be entered but thanks to Bryan who has helped me with unsharp mask I now hope it is worth entering.

Thanks guys. If Bryan gets to see it perhaps he could sharpen it up more for me. The original had definite camera shake. #1336847
