#SL01: This
photograph was made during a trip to Sri Lanka in August
2005.
The elephant raises its trunk in response to a command
given by her mahout. The buildings in the background
are the temple complex of the Shrine of the Sacred Tooth
Relic, and the cloud formation above the peak of the
temple roof an unexplainable gift from Lord Buddha.
