African Elephant, treated in Photoshop

Taken in Shimba Hills, Kenya

Whilst on Safari in Kenya we stopped to watch this African Elephant. It appeared to become agitated and started flapping its ears and moving toward us. Our guide did’nt seem concerned, but I was very relieved when he backed off. Taken in Shimba Hills National Park,Kenya.
