Elephants in Dust
by Michael Rosenbaum
Each day hundreds of elephants come down to drink at the Chobe River in Botswana. They come in groups, sometimes one family after another.

This must have been an incredible sight to see! You captured a tremendous force….. Quite an army of power! How arid and dry it looks. Amazing creatures to endure such an extreme atmosphere.
Thank you for reminding me of the immense journey there is for some creatures just to get a drink of water. Breathing all that dust,fighting the elements…. Great photography! Great story!

Love the angle of those elephants on the march for some water. The colour and dust kicked up makes a wonderful shot.

Great family portrait! Great tone and perspective. I hate to think that such beautiful animals are killed for their tusks.
