This family of elephants comes down every day to drink at the waterhole in the Maasai Mara, Kenya.
Two 210mm photographs stitched together in photoshop. This image, along with Tawney Eagle Sunset, Kenyan Light, and Guardian are part of a photographic exhibition called The Red Earth: Living With Nature in Los Angeles which is to be displayed at the Alitash Kebede Gallery in Los Angeles. If you like these images, stick around. More will come up gradually. --- From the text of the exhibition: Africa is changing. Telephone poles and paved roads are appearing where none were before. At the same time, the Maasai people of Kenya and Tanzania, perhaps the oldest culture in the world, maintain their ties with the land. Surrounded by the vastness of the African wilderness, they have learned to live with nature. Nature, of course, continues as it always has: slowly, unperturbed. The Maasai become a part of the landscape. They are the red earth which feeds all life. They are the tall trees where the baboons take shelter from the African sun. The African wildlife pass like the shadows of clouds on the tall grass. Lion cubs play in the shade, and Impalas watch from a safe distance. There is a sense of balance in everything here. Giraffe and Topi keep watch together over the hillside as the light rolls over them. The Maasai, the stewards of the land, raise their children under the infinite African sky. Follow them, and they will lead you into the bush, on a tour of this majestic land. Listen for their footsteps ahead of you, even if you don’t see them. And when you find their footprints, you’ll know they walk lightly on the red earth. |

 reports, 1d 1h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.63 The Annual 2009 Christmas Caption Contest!$Tachy-on
