The Weekend in Black and White


Elephants

I can`t get enough of elephants and during my last visit to Africa we had a chance to observe many of them in Zambia and Kenya.

    Tolle Elefanten-Portraits, Karen!
    Da fällt es am Ende des Tages schwer, die Kamera auch mal ruhen zu lassen, obwohl man bereits mehrere hundtert (tausend?) Fotos geschossen hat.
    Dir und deinen Lieben ein schönes viertes Adventswochenende (bei strahlendem Sonnenschein wie hier bei uns im Taubertal!)?
    Liebe Grüße, Uwe.

    Frohe Weihnachten und ein gutes, friedvolles und interessantes neues Jahr, liebe Karen, für dich und deine Lieben!
    Ich mach' auch mal wieder ein kleines Päuschen - muss nachschauen, ob noch Sand am Nordseestrand liegt... ;-)
    Liebe Grüße, Uwe.
