Elephant Rock is the most famous landmark of Yala N.P. What a better setting for an Asian Elephant - taken on the lake overlooking Elephant Rock. EOS D60, 100-400mm IS @ 250mm, ISO 200, f/6.7 at 1/500.
A great picture! I am truely impressed.
I plan a trip to Sri Lanka and your great photo series on Yala national park convinced me that I have to go there. My questions to you: is it safe to go there? and is there convenient accomodation in or near the park? what other highlights in Sri Lanka could you recommend to see?
My best wishes, and a happy new year,
