    This is a scene from Timbavati. Shot in vertical orientation. Distracting element next to the little one made the image a bit tight on that side but this is the best I got.

    Hi Sanjeev - this is quite nice with good detail and texture. You handled the dappled light well. Vertical works well too. At first I thought it needed a little ccw rotation but I think it is just that the calf is leaning slightly.

    TFS,

    A nicely composed image. Can almost imagine sitting there as they quietly shuffle by.

    Hi Sanjeev sweet light on this one , you handled the light quite nice and you have nice detail and tones in the image. For me the sky is not adding that much , so i would crop to 5x7 or even 4x5.

    Hi Sanjeev, I like the composition and the way you used the road to curve around, almost leading the elephants towards the viewer. I also like Mum's posture and curving trunk. Again, I do find myself thinking you may have lifted the image? I would perhaps look at dropping the highlights for the sky and either juggling with a drop in Exp or using the many Luminosity masking software now out there.

    A cute moment, Doc! I agree with the comments above - as nice an image as one can take in these road situations. I don't mind snapping animals in the road when the shots come out like this :)
