I love the elephant. I was watching something the other evening on elephants. Hadn't realized the importance of family structure before. They are amazing animals.

Just looking at this now. Harry, those are fantastic shots you've posted. Love the cats! Glad you were able to make it back there. Looking forward to more of these from this trip and from the next.

Congrats on the trip and great images, especially the "leaping" Leopard.
My answer to long flights, usually last row or two in transcontinental flights have only two seats, Curve in fuselage in window seat leaves room for legs. At 6' 3", the added room plus walking the aisles helped. Newark, Chicago, Hong Kong, Manila can try the best accommodations. 757 have aft counter where reading newspapers, conversing is possible.
Someone call 911. I cut myself on these shots. Holy cow!!!
Thanks Patti, the D4 and the D800E produced images wih excellent details.

We saw lots of elephants on the trip and had a good chance to observe them interacting together. It was always amzing to see how they lived and worked together.

Thanks and I would love those seats but they go early. I think a short term coma is a good approach to a long flight in coach.

I have been enjoying myself and more than a few folks agree about "when" as opposed to "if".

Wow Harry! The last time I visited you where mostly posting birds (not that there is anything wrong with that). Fantastic series. Really like the elephant. How long did you wait for the cheetah to jump? Bet that trip pulled something off your bucket list. :O)

Thanks, from time to time I've been known to take non-bird images. It wasn't a long wait for the cheetah. We followed it as it approached the tree and hopped up.
It took a look for any potential meals and then prepared to leave
I caught the dismount and then the landing

...........or, the angle is better from here.
...........or, think 70 watts is the right choice.
............or, the energy saving would be my choice.

That jumping cat ain't bad either.
Glad to see you enjoying yourself, Harry.
BTW not "if" but "when" .
Hey Rick!
Nice to see you posting! Best, Pam
Great hearing from you Ric,
