[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In the short dry season, while out on the Serengeti plains to spot Cheetah, clouds were gathering up. And then these elephants came into view, which made the picture perfect. Afterwards I heard that seeing so many elephants here is a rare phenomenon. Well, the clouds in the dry season were too... I don't think there's ever a normal day in Africa. There's always a surprise around the corner.

Wow! What a magical shot, the clouds alone are impressive but the silouhettes of the elephants make it an amazing capture. Nice work :)

Hello Jochen,

Nice photo with a very big impact and a real atmosphere. Africa could be really magical.
However, I found the visibility on the elephants not enough, so I propose in workshop a try to improve this aspect. I hope it will interest you.

Yves.
