Baby Elephant

Lion Sands South Africa

I had to take this picture in very low light with no flash. The ranger had
us stop taking flash pictures to avoid scaring the baby. The mother was concerned
about how close the baby was to us, reached over the baby and pulled her gently
closer to the mother. Technically its not a great shot, but it is interesting.
It was taken at 1/20th of a second with a 100-400 at 3200 ISO. Its a credit to the lens and
camera that it got what it got.
