I have been neglecting my social media accounts and website lately. I swear there is a good reason! I’ve been in the process of starting a new job. I’m no longer working in electronic field production with Woodbine Entertainment Group. Just this week I started my new roll with the communications team at Trillium Health Partners as their video production specialist. I can’t wait to share some of the new content I’ll be creating.
For now I’ll share this fun pair of images from Sri Lanka. The edit on these were inspired by an incredible set of photos from a photographer named Richard Mosse taken in the Congo using Kodak Aerochrome film. The film renders the lush green landscape into a surreal array of pinks and reds. Unfortunately this type of film has been discontinued and is extremely tough to come. I couldn’t get my hands on any so I just did my best to replicate it in Photoshop. I hope you enjoy. :)
POTD 15.07.19 - Close Encounter With an Elephant Calf
Here is one of the most special animal encounters I’ve ever had in my life.
This is a two week old elephant calf. It isn’t a typical sighting to see the calves out in the open like this. Usually the mother and other females hide the calves away in the bush until they are big enough to not be threatened by predators as well as other male bull elephants. While we observed this group from a safe distance the females surrounded the baby and made some pretty intimidating growls to let us know not to come any closer. To my girlfriend and I, every one of these moments in Udawalawe National Park was new and amazing but for our guide who had 10 years of experience guiding folks through the park not a lot got him visibly excited, but this moment got him pretty giddy. What a privilege it was to see this baby up close.
