There are moments in Amboseli when everything seems to stop. Even the time. And one have the doubt wether or not make the photograph or just simply take your eyes apart from the camera and enjoy what it is in front. As a photographer I most of the times make the photo first. Because things happen only once and can not be repeated. But after, I like to enjoy the moment just being there. That morning in Amboseli there was one of these occasions and when this lonely elephant was crossing the dry lake alone I had to stop shooting and simply enjoy being there. The dusty plain, the beautiful sky and the light were all accompanying this marvelous creature, making a unique scene. I believe this image captures very well those feelings and a part of the Amboseli spirit. The context makes a difference here.
