This is one of my favorite “scenic” shot.
This African Elephant was wading along the water towards a large lala palm at Imagine dam at Phinda Private Game Reserve, South Africa.

I love this picture. It’s a very relaxing picture like sitting on your balcony looking out at the backyard, if you had a backyard .
