EDITORS COMMENTS
Say Cheese! But Beware of the Ears!". In this photo print, we witness a thrilling encounter between an adventurous photographer and a majestic African Elephant bull in Chobe National Park, Botswana. As the lens focuses on the elephant's close-up headshot, it becomes evident that this gentle giant has something important to communicate. With his ears fully extended outwards like gigantic satellite dishes, our charismatic protagonist is not just striking a pose for the camera. Oh no! This impressive display of ear power serves as a clear warning to our brave photographer: "Approach with caution!". As we marvel at this rare moment frozen in time by Thomas Dressler's skillful lens, we can't help but feel both awe and amusement. The sheer size and strength of these magnificent creatures are juxtaposed with their playful yet assertive behavior. The confrontation between man and beast captured here reminds us of the delicate balance between humans and wildlife. It serves as a reminder that even though elephants are endangered due to human activities such as poaching and habitat destruction, they still possess an innate ability to command respect when necessary. So next time you find yourself face-to-face with an African Elephant bull displaying his ears like nature's very own radar system, remember to heed their silent message: "Snap your photos from afar!
