Would you like to know the focal plane distance?
ISO?
Time?
Date?

:shakin:

Graham, that shot was taken by our friend Diane. Don't know what lens she was using, but the elephant, a female, was only about 15 feet from the truck.

Excellent!!

Diane used a Canon EOS Digital Rebel with an f/5.6 zoom, set to 240 mm, fired at 1/100th second at f/16.

Ask the right person and you shall receive .

Good info! Photoshop is so nice. Now if only I shot digital. . . :smilies27

And that is one magnificent lion!

Yeah, he was a good spot, but I think we deserved it as he was the only lion we saw in Moremi in 10 days! And we saw him on the last day on the way out! Some better pics are:

I don't know you well enough to quote Jonathan's last post, so I'll politely decline instead!

Lions, elephants and turtles, Oh My!

No Serengeti around here, but I have run across less than amused animals out here on the open range -

and not quite blocking the trail, but sad to see nonetheless -

Here is my only semi-Africa elephant pic...........

SWR at "Elephant But* Hill" Anza~Borrego Desert........hehe

It only stopped me.....'cause I just had to pose!

 

[jeffryscott]

not exactly blocking ...

plenty of room to get around, but I had to stop for it nevertheless ....

Cant take credit for the image, and I do not know who to give credit to:

But it is is KILLER shot :Wow1:

:smilies27 oh man. :xxrotflma Tell me that isn't photochopped. That is insane! I wonder who was taking the pic, and from where... :Wow1:

 

[Scott Brady]

Now that you mention it. That sure could be a photochop...

 

[datrupr]

If that is a photo chop it is some really nice work! It lloks real enough to me. I think I would have soild myself if I was in that LC.

 

[Brian McVickers]

The definition and clarity of all the parts don't match up very well.
For such detail on the cats the road, truck and background look very blurry.
In fact the clarity of the truck and the back ground look like different pictures.

It's cool though! They even have the truck leaning over a bit from impact!

My turn....
Kenya 2003...solo safari...another elephant shot.
And, yes, he really was that close...about 30 feet. A young bull trying to impress us. He did!
Canon 70-200 at 70mm.

Sorry for the link.

Picture was taken a few months ago in Badlands NP, about a week before the annual roundup. Also came across alot of Pronghorn, Big Horn Sheep, lots of cattle and a few Coyote.

 

[Scott Brady]

John, that image is fantastic. How close were you to them (or what size lens did you use)?

 

[OverlandZJ]

That was around 25' away. :chowtime: Here's another shot.

I have a cheapy HP Photosmart 935? i picked up about 2 years ago, takes decent pics. My first digital camera.

I have more pics from this trip on a disc here in my desk, i'll upload a few more in another post.
