Elephant at Water Hole
The waterhole at Sweetwaters Camp in Ol Pejeta Conservancy is well used by animals. This bull elephant came to drink as people were having dinner. Flash photography is prohibited at the waterhole at night so I used a table to support the camera, used a high ISO setting and took some pictures. I like the different colours that the spotlights give. The elephant was quite relaxed but was listening to us the whole time.
