The only image I have a print of in my house.

Silhouettes are not normally my cup of tea but I like this one. I hope you got back to camp before dark?

Great silhouette! Like the raised trunks of both elephants.

I really like this, great interaction, light, silhouettes and interesting composition, too. Does it need a tad CW rotation?

Agree with the others here, silhouettes are all about definition and good separation, you have both in spades Russell!
Sig is a little distracting however.

Thanks, Ken. You would be surprised. The setup is run nothing like their Bots operations.

Thanks for all the comments.
