Description

One of Etosha's world-famous white elephants (they are so white because of the white mud they cover themselves in to keep away all kinds of unwelcome critters). The mix of wet and dry mud camouflages this young guy perfectly in the late afternoon glow. Canon EOS 70D. Sigma 50-500mm lens. Autofocus.

Exif: Camera: Canon Canon EOS 70D; Shutter Speed: 1/640; Aperture: f/6.3; ISO: 400; Orientation: 1; Date: 2019:06:24 16:15:48

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed.
