An image from the Chobe River, Botswana. A small herd of elephants were feeding on on the banks of the river at sunset. The light had got too dark to shoot anything other than silhouettes, and they weren't so hot either, so with the use of a flash i managed this picture. The look alike stars are actually insects lit up by the flash, i quite like them as something different added to the picture, WDYT

I wonder if going to f/2.8 might have been better, but guess at that distance any real definition/detail would be hard to get? Finally, I just wonder if either putting a vignette in as to darken the top RH corner to emphasis things more, or also to slightly darken the FG too, just a thought.
