Species: Elephant | Location: Etosha National Park, Namibia
This baby elephant ran non-stop for almost an hour, from one elephant to another, wanting to play with them all. After taking enough shots, I decided to try and take some panning shots. This was when he decided to stop running... Luckily, as the herd left the water hole in Etosha in Namibia, he ran one last sprint to catch up with them, and that's when I got him—happy, active, playful. I hope he's safe, but in my photo he'll stay forever young.

About The Photographer
As a veterinarian, I offer a special look into the eyes and souls of the animals I photograph. My ability to read and anticipate animal behavior allows me to catch "special moments" and give you a glimpse into their rich emotional lives and unique personalities.
Many of the animals I photograph are endangered. I hope that you will connect with them through my lens, love them as I do, and join me in the fight to help them.
My passions also include street photography, travel photography, and interesting land and cityscapes. I take my camera with me always, and love capturing the people of New York City where I live today, and my native home of Jerusalem. But animals will always have my heart...
