That's an interesting composition. Like the colours and the lighting. I would have liked to see some more room on top..looks a bit tight in the frame.

Composition is beautiful! After seeing this image, I feel if I would have been in your place, I would have tried to get an blurred image of their tails wagging :-) That probably would have popped out the fact that they are enjoying their meal :-) but then I am just thinking out aloud. The fact that they are both not facing the camera and the slight tilt of the baby's head towards the mother is just too fantastic :-) I enjoyed this image thoroughly :-)

Nurdeen, I am so happy that you decided to take this shot of the elephants. This image even though showing the expressions from the back did not at all fall short of carrying the message of bonding between the mother and the calf. Love has no direction, no front or back. Its uncompromising and beautiful. I think this is one of the most creative photo I have seen here in this forum. Creativity not always has to come from camera work or techniques, it can be simply be a simple perspective expressed as perfectly as in this photo.

Welcome to CNP Nurdeenji, what a subtle but impactful depiction of the bonding between these two. The caption adds to the drama. The tail position of both the animals reflects the extent of bonding in a unique way.

Welcome to CNP nurdeenji! This indeed is beautiful image. Parenting well portrayed here. This depicts the love and bondage between mother and the child who are totally oblivious to the external world! Beautiful indeed.

Welcome to CNP Nurdeenji,
A very different visualisation from the normal elephant portraits we generally see. The bonding between the calf and the mother is also very well depicted.
Would love to see more of such unique perspectives from you.
Thanks for sharing

Welcome to CNP Nurdeen !

I think back view with tailed swung in different directions gives this image a unique view. I think the bonding is more powerfully portrayed here because of the back view. Front view of this same image would have rendered this ordinary in my view. I agree with Sudhir on leaving some room on the top. May be it needs a bit boosted constrast too. Thanks for sharing !

Nurdeenji,
A warm welcome to CNP. A nice perspective image to start with. Very pleasent colours here and synchronised tail wagging mother and calf. I would have loved more with extra space on top.
