Comment: Aditthya - thanks for the feedback. Will incorporate your suggestion
Prashanth - Thought of the title as a flash was placed in front of the camera and a giant eclipsed the light
Ganesh - the set ups have been designed from an elephant point of view so that they could be used in a Corbett landscape

Comment: Such an amazing POV. Indeed a disaster turned into fine art as Ganesh has said... One work of art which should do India proud at some stage.

Comment: Beautiful image and thoughts. I agree that a bit of induced noise would ads a lot to this.
Loved those lines Ghanshyam

Comment: wonderful swapnil. How about starting the frame from the start of the fall and omitting the bland sky altogether?

Comment: The experience was great Ganesh. Every day was a new learning. Day 1 I observed the elephants were a bit vary of human presence in their path. That's when I thought of eliminating smell and applied some mud and dung on clothes and face. Slowly learnt to curb the excitement of shooting as soon as the subject approached the pit as the shutter sound was making them change direction. I had a 24mm focal length to play with and decided to shoot when the subject walks into the frame which was desired. So the margin of error increased as the composition had to be spot on whenever the opportunity was presented. Tried a few wide angle motion blurs on day 2 and would be sharing the same shortly. The achievement was when one female took me as a part of her environment and decided to scratch herself against the roof of the pit.

Comment: Ganesh - this was made in Tsavo west. Spent 2 days in an underground pit, covered myself with dung and soil in order to make the approaching elephants comfortable. Would be uploading some interesting elephant point of views on CNP in the coming days.

Comment: Unfortunately not Ganesh... There were 3-4 vehicles with big lenses firing shutters at the guy and moving closer would have disturbed everyone.
