Fay,
Thanks for dropping by all the way from Canada ^-^

Diane,
Thanks for respecting the Thai's culture. Just want to elaborate a litle more. Elephant do play an significant role in their culture & economy (logging industry....exploiting, depend on how you interpret). They do treat the animal as their friend or pet. One think I am sure is they don't kill them for the ivory.

Dear all,
Let's all just respect each others cultures & opinion. Happy photography & wish you a great weekend. I am off for two days & hope to shoot some nice images of Malaysia to share with you. Regards!
