Wouldn't that be poaching?

@ goodman, what a great moment, and captured with such expertise!

In my Wild Kingdom Narrator's voice: "The mother and father look on in horror as junior's baby sister nearly drowns while he is busy showing off." LOL :)

Awesome shot, Les. I was just poping in and missed seeing your shots so thought I'd catch up. Someday I want to shoot elephants with you. :)

Oh Lesley! Dang. This makes me want to cry! I think part of it is because I love elephants SO MUCH. . . and I feel so sad for the elephant in our zoo (or ANY elephant in any zoo) because they can't get out and play together like this! A couple of weeks ago my favorite elephant just died. They don't know why, but now they are fearing the other one is grieving himself to death :( I think he died of a broken heart because he can't get out and play like these elephants can!

this is an awesome photo but the post processing doesnt really do it for me, it seems a bit sloppy with the masking or dodging. which ever of the two you used. i would love to see other edits of this photo

Is the young one dead? or they just playing? Could be a sad story, I don't know what Tlou is, or good story :/

very nice. interesting processing. they look like they are coming out of the photo. i like it. i'm curious about what that is in the water to the left of the elephant on his back legs.

The vignetting works well here, holds our attention right down the middle. Nicely done.
