Wildlife: Honorable Mention 2019 (amateur)
Heavenly Bond by Indranil Basu Mallick (India)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
As a wildlife photographer we often get clicks of species but rarely we got a chance to capture emotions and on such moment was this when I felt that they are jus so same like us and relation with Mother and its child is so pure and just the same across all living beings. I took this scene at Jim Corbett National Park, Uttarakhand India during the hot summer of April. Wild Elephants makes small migration to reach river banks during the summer month. Even Elephant babies accompany the herd but the herd are quite protective. In this scene the mother elephant took the calf at the banks to quench her thirst after a hot summer day, the baby seems to be learning from the mother and sipping the drops from mother lips.
