Taken at Lebala, Northern Botswana, 3rd December 2006.
I have no idea why both horns are broken but this Bull was a fairly regular sighting on his way down to water.

Sorry Ken, doesn't really work for me in many respects, think you have better.

Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
Looks like wear and tear Ken. It looks happy enough in its environment.

I like the view of the broken horns, good record shot !!
... btw I call the big ones elephats vs the little guys elethins :)
Really nice light on this bull. The centered comp works well with this subject. The only small problem is the bright sky in the BG but not bad. Well done!
Hi Ken... it must be amazing to just see these guys in personal, and then of course also photograph them... I love the head-on shot of these guys, this one included. I think the image would have more impact if the sky wasn't seen through the vegetation, etc.
How low were you when capturing this... standing/sitting/laying, etc?
Nice capture of this bull in good light. I like the chosen comp and head on view. TFS

Thanks for all of the positive and negative comments, this was taken whilst we were stalking a Leopard.

I've never seen an Elethin thankfully:):)

We were sitting in a normal game viewing vehicle, well a Uri.
I like the light here Ken as well as the placement of the bull - the only thing that bothers me is the OOF grass on the left. I need to get back to Botswana!
