Unexpectedly, my boyfriend and I were caught this shot at an annual event in my hometown of Muskegon, MI. This private owned elephant takes an annual swim in Lake MI every year on Labor Day! The experience was extremely up close and personal, but very exhilarating

This was a random summer day driving by the beach. The elephant is privately owned and once a year the owners take him to the beach. I grew up in Muskegon and was driven by the beach to show my boyfriend my hometown and we noticed people crowded by the pier... I thought somebody had drowned to be honest, but we were able to get really close to the elephant. We even were able to pet him, he was so cute!Editing
I used Adobe Lightroom, but did not have to do many adjustments. I do have quite a few shot from that day so I made many adjustments on other shots.In my camera bag
