Les Ryan, Elephant Chases Lion (May theme: Travel)

We were on a 4x4 Safari in Botswana watching 2 lions lazing in the sunshine when a large bull elephant burst through a nearby woodland as if to say get out of my patch. The lioness moved quickly, but the lion hesitated just long enough for me to take one shot. How Lucky!! Nikon D800, Nikon 80-400mm Zoom Lens at 80mm, f8, 1/2500th sec.
