Weekly Photo Challenge: Warmth – Huge Love

Coming from the tropics, we are never short of heat. The weather may be dry or wet, but it’s always warm, very warm or intolerably warm. Cool spells, when they occur, are regarded with shock and amazement.

For this week’s photo challenge, I chose a picture to reflect both the heat of the day, and the enduring warmth between an elephant and his keeper. As I mentioned in my previous post on this topic, an elephant and his keeper are bonded for life, beginning from the time the baby elephant is assigned to a young man in the elephant-keeping family.
