Big 5s
Piper Mackay
Photographer
“Elephants go to my soul. Captivated by their behaviour, I could sit silently and peacefully, watching them for hours, without a camera in my hands.
Everything about them, including the low rumbles, the alarming trumpeting, the disciplinary nudges of a mother with their young, the dusting after a mud bath, the practices for territorially battles, and the single-file marches across the open plains, is fascinating. Portraying the reckless beauty of Africa, these strong and vital creatures can also seem fragile when you realise they’re faced with extinction.
Sharing a glimpse into their world and capturing their essence in the wild is beyond exciting. Every click is a privilege and cherished pleasure.”
