A World of Elephants


Where there are elephants, there is compassion - simone cull


Imagine being transcended into an a world of beauty where megafauna roams the earth in peace. 

A landscape where every glance reveals the majestic presence of a gentle giant, their silhouettes gracefully moving against the backdrop of a breathtaking horizon. 

As the sun rises, casting golden rays over the savannah, these magnificent creatures emerge from the shadows, embodying the essence of tranquility and beauty in the natural world.

Each moment spent observing them deepens your appreciation for their strength, vulnerability and intelligence.

As evening approaches, the sun sets behind Mount Kilimanjaro. Against this stunning backdrop, elephants are silhouetted in striking poses, creating an unforgettable scene that captures the heart.

This is Amboseli, you are taken away, your mind lost in the horizon, in the world of elephants.

They are renowned for their remarkable emotional intelligence, displaying an array of complex emotions, sensing and responding to the needs of others.

Family members surround a baby to protect them as they lay in the middle of the savannah to take a nap (Baby needs a Nap) or providing support to them as they attempt to cross a waterway (Family Support) sensing a vulnerability, these actions demonstrate an undeniable cognitive ability with a profound understanding of their family members needs. 

Black and white photography captures and enhances emotion, conveying those feelings and moods the animal is expressing. Drawing you in to the soul of the animal, connecting two sentient beings, you and the animal, allowing an understanding of the other.
