July 16

This past Friday at work, I had two assignments. First, i had a photo op at the Galt Arena Gardens where some people were planting greenery and cleaning up the nearby creek. After that, I was off to African Lion Safari for the official introducing of the new baby Asian elephant, Jake.
I got to photograph them during their elephant swim and speak to the Elephant Superintendent, Charlie Gray.
Since I just finished working at safari, I went over to visit the girls at the playground before returning to work. Jeff let me go home super early so I left my photos for Monday.
The photo and story for safari will be tomorrow's front page story and main art. I'm very proud! :)
I hope my fellow safariers will enjoy the story, as well as everyone else who is following my work. I will post the link once it is posted to the website.
