These elephants were grazing at twilight on the flat lands of the Laikipia Plateau in Kenya. Laikipia was once a cattle ranching area but was later reclaimed for wildlife conservation. As I’ve mentioned before, we were there during the short rains in November for a reason — the incredible skies like the one on this particular evening.
