Kajiado, Kenya
The elephant park, and the one that gives you the photograph you already have in your head: big tuskers crossing dust and swamp with Kilimanjaro filling the sky behind them. Amboseli's herds are among the most studied on earth and remarkably relaxed around vehicles. The mountain hides in cloud through the middle of the day, so the light you want is at dawn and again at dusk.

Kilimanjaro cleared at 6am and an elephant family walked straight across the frame. Unrepeatable morning.
The biggest tuskers left in Africa, and they could not care less about the vehicle. Extraordinary.
Dusty and stark, then the mountain appears and it all makes sense. Go early, stay late.
