Grey Ghost Of Etosha | Bull Elephant | Acrylic Glass Prints
While he stands knee-deep in the waterhole, his eyes close as he dozes off. Now and again, this giant will swish his tail or fill his trunk to spray his massive frame with the cool grey liquid. He is big – 4 meters tall and over 4 tons in weight, he is the "Godfather" as I affectionately call this giant elephant. It is two in the afternoon and the heat is relentless; over 30 degrees Celsius and no shade.
It's been the same routine for weeks now. The Godfather and his two shadow bulls arrive early afternoon and commandeer the waterhole. This is the only water for 20 sq km; the animals have traveled all day to drink this life-saving water. This "Trinity" will not give way or tolerate any other animal to drink in their presence.
A multitude of animals, springbok, gemsbok, zebra, ostrich, giraffe, and even lion have waited hours for the elephants' departure. That they may quench their thirst.
When the elephants do eventually leave my heart skips a beat as I prepare for the shot that has eluded me for so long. In my mind's eye, I have visualized this scene many times. But for this to happen, I need them to walk towards me. But each day I groan inwardly and at another missed opportunity as the Trinity heads off to dust bath in the opposite direction.
Today, however, will be different as that morning, I had seen the three bulls feeding on a camel thorn tree away from their usual feeding place. Soon it will be time for them to depart. I leave, anticipating their route, and wait silently for them to come into view. I have checked and rechecked my equipment and decided upon the camera and lens combination. I now relax and control my breathing as they come into view.
The next ten minutes are the bliss of forgetfulness as I zone into the task at hand; only one moment stands out.
He stands still before me in all his magnificence, raising his trunk filled with the red Kalahari dust. In one fluid movement, he sprays his forehead, and for one brief moment, he is covered in the magic of dust and light.
