Wet Baby by DianiRalph by DianiRalph

When we first pulled up to the swamp we saw the adult elephants feeding and interacting.
It was only a while later as they started to come out that we suddenly realised that there were two babies with the group. The babies had been completely submerged and the long grass had hidden them from view.
The mother elephants actually had quite a task getting the two babies out of the swamp, as the babies thought that their playtime was much more important than whatever might come next.
This photo connects with some of my earlier posts showing the two baby elephants playing.

Monte Lussari Alpenglow by jimnilsen by jimnilsen

What a delightful way to celebrate my 60th birthday. A 45 minute drive from my wife’s hometown of Klagenfurt, Austria to nearby Tarvisio, Italy and then a gondola up to the top of Monte Lussari to spend the night at a cozy mountain hotel. This location and composition has to be one of the most amazing scenes that I have ever witnessed. This place is simply amazing!

This is a 10 vertical frame panorama processed in Lightroom. I cropped this final image to a 3 to 1 ratio.
