This lady was intently watching a baby elephant that was running and playing with it mom. She was with 3 other males, our driver said if there are enough male lions they will attack a baby elephant. We stayed for a short time but we had to return to camp before dark. We saw the elephants the next morning and the baby was still with them. Tamron SP, 103mm, f5.6, 1/90, iso 200, evening light.
