Great setting n beautiful frame, love the towering trees.
When I started shooting elephants about 26 years ago, the very first thing that fascinated me was river crossing.

Ken,
great picture including very nicely the habitat, something that I personally like very much, especially if the situation like here gives you the chance.

Love the trees in the background, "standing' over the elephant crossing!

Hi Ken,
Nice 'scape! I like the low positioning of the subjects in the frame and, as others have pointed out, the trees in the background add a lot to the image. My only VERY small nit is I wish there was a tiny bit more room on the left so that the branches of the background tree didn't touch the the edge of the frame.
Cheers...
Brad

A stunner, Ken. A great capture, terrific light and strong composition. I do wish the animals had a little more room to walk in to on the left, but that's a very minor nit.
