I finally caught Cee’s Black and White Challenge topic with time to participate; this week’s them is “Close Ups”. And me being me, I thought what better subject for a close-up than elephants!
I hope you enjoy, have a great day!

A nyala peers out from behind trees that provide minimal cover. I love the flashes of sunlight brightening the eyes and the tips of the horns.

With the sun just about halfway below the tree line, I thought this fit the bill for this week’s WPC topic, Half-light.

2016-03-07: Monochrome Monday & WPC Muse
I decided to combine my usual Monochrome Monday with a WPC topic of the week: Muse. What topic do I return to time and time again? What subject inspires me? What am I ALWAYS excited to photograph?
If you’ve read this blog for more than a week, you’ll know the answer, it’s easy:
Elephants 🙂
I’d happily spend a day, a week, a lifetime in the presence of elephants. Photographing them of course, but more importantly just being in their presence, enjoying their rumbles and trumpeting, feeling the vibrations of their communications at levels we can’t hear, revealing in their beautiful, peaceful nature.
Here are a couple photos that popped out at me this time for editing and posting.
Enjoy, and have a wonderful week.
Note – this isn’t the current WPC topic of the week… not even close. But when I was looking for the current one, this spoke one spoke to me. Onto Harmony later in the week.
