Going Fast
Elephants are capable of moving swiftly when they want to. Despite their size and look, they have the ability to run at a rapid speed when required. 15.5 miles per hour, to be precise, though only over short distances. This elephant is fleeing from the photographer who is attempting to picture him with his camera. It’s still a great photo, even if it’s a little blurry.
Blending In
Have you ever thought about how wildlife photographers manage to get those amazing, once-in-a-lifetime shots? They do, in fact, have to go to tremendous lengths on occasion. This diligent photographer is a great example. He’s not only partially submerged in water, but he’s also costumed like a swan, which is really unsettling. We’d love to see the images he shot that day, especially if some befuddled swans mistook him for Björk and tried to pretend for her at the 2001 Academy Awards.
