Top-selling South African-born photographer Steve Bloom has compiled twelve years of work into this celebration of the elephant, the largest land mammal on earth. That work saw Bloom travel from the wilds of Botswana to the crowded cities of India. Aerial shots of herds in motion, dramatic interactions of aggressive males, tender times between mothers & calves, portraits of the rich decorations of Indian elephants & extraordinary underwater images form an intimate study of these creatures that are so different to us, yet share so many similar characteristics.
