Location
This was taken in the Serengeti in Tanzania.Time
We were on a family safari and our guide had stopped our vehicle to observe a herd of elephants. It was about midday in August, so a hot day.Lighting
It was overcast and dusty with the sun appearing sporadically. I used an ISO of 800.Equipment
This was shot on a Canon 650D using the kit lens that came with the camera. I no longer have the lens, I think it was an 18-200mm. Handheld from the back of the safari vehicle.Inspiration
It struck me that all three of the elephants were using the same legs as they walked away. I also liked the balance created by the 2 smaller ellies on either side of the bigger ellie.Editing
No, this is SOOC.In my camera bag

Patience is key. Observe the animals as they go about their business and be ready to take the shot if they do something unusual.
