I love this shot. What happened was me and my girlfriend went to African Lion Safari and we saw a show with two trainers and an adult elephant and a younger elephant. One of the last tricks they did was have one of the elephants show off how precise they can be with their trunks. They asked the audience for a toonie, and this boy ran down to give it to the trainer and they had the elephant pick it up off of the ground which was cool. They then had the kid hold out his hands and the elephant put the toonie back in the kid's hands. Luckily I was able to get a quick shot of it happening right at the moment the elephant put the toonie in the kid's hand. This is one of those shots that might not be your best but you take pride in it anyway.
