Taken at Etosha National Park, Namibia. I bet these elephants are grateful for their thick skin since this doesn't look like the most comfortable of environments to be walking in. Photographed with the Sony A7iv and the Tamron 150-500mm, at 427mm. F/6.3, 1/1000 sec, ISO 200. I raised the shadows and dropped the highlights a little, and I added some sharpening. I think some of the brambles/thorns might have been concealing the mother's left eye, so I probably cleaned that up too. The focus is on the mother, but it's the baby elephant that draws my eye for some reason
