29 Of The Most Impressive Shots From The “inFocus” Nature Photography Of The Year 2022 Contest
#14 “Where The Giants Roam”, Winner, Animal Portraits
Elephants are a common sight along the river and in the paddy fields of Sri Lanka’s north-central province. The farmers are happy to allow these gentle giants to enter their paddy fields after harvest. But they do everything possible to chase away the pachyderms during the crop season. This aerial shot of a massive tusker beautifully captures its larger shadow against the riverbank decorated with the footprints of his herd.
