This photo was taken while on a photo safari with 8 other photographers (including a couple of Nikonians) in the Masai Mara National Reserve, Kenya. Our vehicle found this elephant shortly before sunset and followed it until the last rays of the sun disappeared. We all got some excellent silhouettes and the sky was icing on the cake!

NICE SILHOUETTE AND BEAUTIFUL SUNSET CAPTURED AT JUST THE RIGHT MOMENT IN TIME THAT MOTHER NATURE WAS WILLING TO GIVE IT UP.
