| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
Hello Friends at TrekLens:
We had been driving around and looking for an elephant. By the end of the day, we were tired and had given up. It was then we spotted this one. They said it was a 40 year old and was resting and getting ready for a festive decorative ride. Did you notice those chains? They are not very strong to hold this powerful animal and are simply for a psychological reason.
The leaves that he was eating comes from a tree called ‘Peepal’ in Hinidi. I took two captures and this is the first one
It was an heavy overcast so I increased my ISO to 400 with aperture at F/5 and shutterS to 250.
My best wishes for a wonderful day.
David

Adjustable exposure compensation from -2 to +2 EV in 1/2 EV or 1/3 EV increments in all exposure modes.
Auto exposure bracketing (AEB) from -2 to +2 EV in 1/2 EV or 1/3 EV increments in all autoexposure modes.
Shutter speeds from 1/8,000 to 30 seconds, and a Bulb setting for longer exposures (many-minute exposures are quite feasible).
