20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
The Stampede
A stampede occurred when a bull elephant came at the herd in full speed. With the dust rising; we couldn't see much; but our camera seemed to have captured the beautiful moment of fear and flight within the herd. If you look closely you can see the elephant and behind it a buffalo watching it. These were the last members of the herd making way for the playful elephant. All this commotion caused by one elephant. Clearly numbers don't out weigh size in this natural world.
