Hi Douglas - I like these sort of silhouettes. Good placement in frame. I prefer a cleaner silhouette where the animals aren't intersecting at all. Not sure if you captured any frames where the baby wasn't intersecting with the mom. If it were mine I would clean up the pixels in dark fg area and make sure it was all black. Btw I only see 3 elephants not 4?
TFS,
Rachel
Thanks, Rachel. Unfortunately, the little one was always besides the bigger one. As to the "other" elephant, one can just see the back of it to the left of the one facing the camera. I kinda like the little curved trunk partially hidden behind the other elephant. Maybe because I was surprised to discover it when I first looked at the image.
