I popped down to Green Park the other day to hunt for elephants. Not real ones, obviously – but some of the elephant statues in the Elephant Parade.

There are over 200 dotted across the city, and although there are maps and numbers and a guide to which ones are where – just choosing to go and hunt is quite fun.

It’s quite hard to shoot elephants that all look, aside from colours, exactly the same (I think there are two models – one walking, one sitting) in a way that isn’t that dull, but using the patterns and environment around the elephants made it a little easier. I got some good shots shooting through the trunk of one elephant at another one behind it, which I’m sure will make it onto Flickr in good time. (In fact, here’s my Elephant Parade flickr set.)

Anyway, enjoy this one for now, and get hunting!

(There’s a PhotowalkLondon that’s doing an elephant hunt next week – you can see who’s going and RSVP here.
