Sheldon, these are excellent captures. I love all the detail in the first one, those elephants look like they were really enjoying the cool mud. How can he fall asleep with all the excitement going on.. lol.. very nice work Sheldon. All of them are so good.

Another stunning selection Sheldon, with so many excellent pictures it must be difficult to know what to post next. You are so fortunate to have experienced these wonderful animals up close and very personal, well done mate

Yuck! That's a nasty elephant. Well I guess the quality of the experience depends on the partaker! What great after lunch entertainment and an amazing experience.

[leonaashlee]

Awesome...looks very calming...haha.
You are very lucky my friend.

[Heaterguy]

Wow. I can't begin to imagine how it would be to get that close to one in the wild. Great photos.

These are another fantastic set of after lunch shots, I am so jealous I would love to go to a place like that. The first two are great photos.

thank you - they do this and then cover themselves in dust whilst still wet - I think it gets rid of the insects - not sure it's the same elephant as they come mob handed
