Elephant and handler, Amber Fort Photo

Photographer’s Note

This photo was taken at Amber Fort near Jaipur, Rajasthan. The elephant handler was coming down the path after depositing some tourists. I was on foot, just coming up the path.

Vivid colors and great warm lighting. Couldn't have asked the elephant to pose any better too! The only concern I see with this is that the blue of the sky is very grainy, as if it was darkened too much or something of that like. Great shot though!

Hi Joan!
Great first photo for trekearth! Just a great point of view....wonderfully dramatic with all the colors, and of course the elephant's trunk is perfect! Perfect eye contact with the elephant handler too! Nice work! cheers,
Steve
