The picture was taken in the Addo Elephant National Park shortly after the first big rains of the season. I was watching several small elephant families, numbering almost 60 in total, which were congregating at the waterhole. It was chaos with so many elephants at a small waterhole until I found this elephant indulging in a good mud bath, taking a moment to itself. Magic.
