I agree. HA hurts my enjoyment of this image with great light and sharp details on the elephant.

Harshad & Robert,

Can you tell me what sort of head angle you would have preferred? Have a few others.

Harshad,

No shots with more turn I am afraid, my intention was to get a profile as that was all I was allowed:e3

Ken - I agree with Harshad and Robert. Do you perhaps have any with the head parallel to the sensor? In this image, it seems that the ellie's head is actually angled slightly away from you. I'd also prefer a little more room below. He's cute and the light looks good and so does the detail.

TFS,
Rachel
