Thanks Nevil and Ramesh
Ramesh - shot quite a few in sequence, i liked this stance/ combo most - like Nevil put it, it had the right "play of parts" that made the elephant
thanks all, once again. Ganesh's comment on an earlier thread, where he said comments and critiques stand on their own strength apart from the image, is what makes this forum... so many of all your comments have had me thinking of various possibilities.
thanks!
