    Good exposure and colour in the ele. I like the environment aspect to the image, I wonder if it needs rotating anti clockwise a little?

    Hi Loi, a well exposed shot against a beautiful African backdrop. It does look as if it requires a bit of anti clockwise rotating. The colours all look very natural.

    Beautiful image! I really like that the elephant stands alone above the flat plain with a simple horizon line of a few trees. Good to have clouds in the sky and great compositional placement of that tall grass to the right of the elephant. Yes, a truly lovely day. Agree that image needs a slight bit of rotation.

    Thank you very much everyone. Your comments are much appreciated. The PP was done based upon your feedback on my last few images, so I think I can see the improvements too. Loi

    Hi Loi - Nice one. Comp works very well with the placement in frame and the walking pose. Better detail in the clouds on this one. I'll leave colors to others since away at the moment.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Beautiful image with lovely colours. I'd expect a little more detail on the face and trunk with that kit combo at f11. Perhaps you could sharpen slightly on the subject?
