This elephant is semi-habituated and was photographed at the Elephant Experience in Botswana. We don't make a habit of photographing captive or semi-habituated animals but this was too good an opportunity to miss, getting this close to a fully grown male elephant. Canon EOS-40D with 17-40mm f/4L lens.
