“Startled Elephant”

Description

I was on safari  in Mana pools,Zimbabwe, when I saw this Elephant.Stupidly,I hid behind a bush……so that I could photograph him. When he came closer,I came up from my crouch position with camera in hand……… Luckily for me he stopped he was very startled, he had his trunk was ready to whack me,but,I dropped down again. I was fortunate that he wanted to get to the Zambezi river, to drink & eat some plants & didn’t really care about me.
