Elephants throw mud across their bodies to protect their skin from the harsh African sun and use dust to cool themselves. Capturing this behavior and using different shutter speeds for various effects has become one of my favorite aspects of our annual tour of Southern Africa.
We are taking reservations for the 2026 Southern Africa Adventure with Nat Expo Tours. Dates are Oct 16-30 and include Namibia, Botswana, and Victoria Falls, and we are offering an early booking discount. Email me if you or someone you know is interested or visit our site for more info and the complete itinerary: https://natexpotours.com/2026-namibia/
Cheers!
