Thats cool! I think you could crop in tighter for a bit more impact, still leave some space ofcourse
Hi Basil, pretty neat, love the trailing dust and overall muted colours, looks good.
1/5000 might be a little OTT, I think 1/3200 would have been enough, I think dropping your EV gained you the additional SS, but as you had a reasonably low ISO, no worries.

Hi Basil - A very iconic Etosha image, well captured and processed. Love the cascade of dust.
TFS,

Great action on this one Basil, the line the dust has taken, and especially the dust right at the end of the trunk make the shot for me. Nicely presented.

Thank you soooo much for your comments guys !!!!!!:bg3::bg3::bg3:
Love the arching dust trail here Basil, in an iconic Etosha scene, nice contrasting colours. This is one very fat, squat and stocky bull. :Whoa!:

Great action scene with all that dust the well fed Elephant is stirring up,like all the different textures and tones,very nicely done.
Thank you Keith and Mark thank you very much

Hi Basil -- Very nicely Done . Always love to see the elephants dust bathing , nicely framed and processed as well .
TFS !
Classic Etosha shot! I think this is one of the two big boys who like to hang around that area - we saw them last month as well.
Colours look spot on.
Thank you everybody I truly appreciate the comments !!!!
