Re: GESO: Elephants at Sable Dam (crops fot Larry)
Rick In this case it's play - these are juvenile elephants. In the case of adult bulls, a struggle for dominance. In this very place, about 5 years ago when the water level was very low, a bull was killed in such a fight. The park rangers removed the tusks & slit open the skin to give scavengers easy access. During the next two days the hyenas, jackals, crocs, vultures & maribou storks cleaned up. I heard about it too late & only saw the left over skin & bones.

One of the wonderful things about post processing is that you are not restricted to only one version of a single frame. I love the shape of the intertwined trunks, and could even see the possibility for a version cropped in so tightly it just included the portion of the frame with the trunks and tusks, bringing it to nearly an abstract composition. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com http://red4est.com/lrc https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/collections/72157612824732477/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Ditto. Beautiful shots. Alan, what is the “wrestling match” about? Older male asserting dominance? Courtship ritual? Play?

No problem, Larry. Here are four scenes from the wrestling match. https://www.flickr.com/photos/wisselstroom/41754906690/ Alan C On 22-Jul-18 09:49 AM, Larry Colen wrote: Alan C wrote on 7/22/18 12:02 AM: 3 shots of Elephants at Sable Dam. Scroll R for the others. Being the only permanent water available in the area during the dry season, Sable Dam enjoys a constant stream of Elephants & other animals throughout the day, quite hectic at times. https://www.flickr.com/photos/wisselstroom/42656487275/ Great shots. I would love to see a really tight crop of that first one, of just the faces and intertwined trunks. K5 with the Sigma 170-500 DG @ 170mm, cropped a bit.
