[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Are elephants in Sri Lanka always gray/orange ? No. This one we saw just before we lost the road. This type of elephant is normally seen in the sky (flying).

In the workshop a painted version can be found. I painted it to gray to get a more usual look.

Also in the workshop, the jeep can be seen in which we went on jeep-safari.

Photo is made in the National Park.

Well, everyone is in a good humor this morning. I hope the elephant does not see this photo, because.... what if he is male? If the elephant is a female, I guess she would like the color you picked up for her. TFS

Hi Joop - Thanks for making me smile and laugh about your pink elephant and its gray 'painted version' in the workshop! Next time you may come across a green elephant (though it would be harder to recognize, I believe). - Cheers, Cordelia :))
PS: I agree with John that your PP work could use a bit tidying up.

Funny I see the same elephant,each New Year...
Ciao Francesco

De jeep ziet er bijzonder vertrouwenwekkend uit Joop! Dat kan ik niet zeggen van de olifant. Jullie hadden toch niet net een stokerij bezocht en de camera laten meedrinken???
Pink is nog enger in zo'n mooie natuurlijke omgeving.
HoeKomJeErop - niet op die olifant maar op zijn kleur dan bedoel ik.

Hallo Joop.
Mooi overstekende olifant maar de kleur vind in teveel van het goede. Maar ik neem aan dat dit een grapje is.
