There were 200-300 elephants in the grasslands of Dhikala this time. Several groups of them and this group was very very aggressive. Thanks for your views..

BTW, do you see concetric halos (jpeg artifacts) in this image ? I did not see that on my calibrated display but now I see it on my uncalibrated laptop screen. It shows how important monitor calibration really is.

Art of using light here. For my taste I would have cropped a few pix from bottom Ganesh.
and No halos in my "non" calibrated monitor ! i'm lucky my monitor is holding up for a long time now :)
Thanks for sharing.

Dhikala magic works here ! Loved the raised tail of the elephant suggesting the mood .How about vertical composition with only two elephants ?

Lovely silhouette Ganesh. Like the warm tone in the image.
Would probably crop off a bit from bottom, but more importantly (for me) clone out the specular highlights (few of them are very distracting) in the FG.

Am seeing the halo on my laptop which is not calibrated, these days any serious person would see an image only on a calibrated monitor, so I guess not much reason to worry :). Ganesh, did you think of converting this to black and white ? I like the tone of the sky a lot here, perfect DOF too, but again thought if the elephant legs could be opened up a tad more than the grassland, but seeing on an uncalibrated monitor can never give the right feel. Have to check on my mac.
