TITLE: The fascinating behavior of elephants

Everytime I travel to southern africa I am fascinated by elephants. Their power but also their social behavior are impressive and I could sit and watch them for hours. With my photos I try to visualize my view of these big mammals. Eather in the Kaokovel of Namibia, where they are adopted to the harsh living conditions of the desert or in the Caprivi and Okavango Delta, with lots of water, Elephants are highly intelligent and they support and care for another. Young calves use their trunks to grab on to their mother`s tail, a touching sight.
