African elephant
Tsavo East National Park
Kenya

This normally light grey elephant has rolled in muddy water and then covered herself with the clay dusty soil found in Tsavo East National Park. This coating protects her skin from sun and insects. Because of the soil, Tsavo East National Park is famous for its "red" elephants.

This photograph was taken while on foot near a watering hold. We were able to make a fairly close approach to the elephants who were engaged in their bathing ritual. In the background, you can see an elephant newly coated in dark black mud.

I processed this with an infrared effect to give it a bit of a surreal appearance.

Even though the building appears to be falling apart, the National Park Service allowed us inside to tour it.

Kennecott Glacier does not look like a typical glacier. It is covered by a layer of rocks and debris (moraine) but you can see the ice beneath in some spots.
