15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Rhino From Chitwan

There are about 600 rhinos in Chitwan National Park. It was a pure adventure to follow wild rhinos in their natural habitat. The main instructions, in case a rhino ran in my direction, were to climb a tree; if there was no tree, to run zigzags. The red color of the grass comes from my imagination.

This photo is a finalist in the Altered Images category of our 15th Annual Photo Contest. See all 60 finalists here.
