    Continuing my Ele series from the Chobe river, these guys were drinking up to their hearts content. Did a 16:9 format here. Hope you like it.

    Hi Sanjeev - The pp looks better on this than the last one. Nice pov again and you've brought out a lot of detail and texture. The 16x9 format works fine. I think I would prefer a bit more room below but you probably don't have any. Try adding a couple of points of black to the neutrals in selective color.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Nice warm light and I like the amount of space you allowed in the composition. Image gives a nice sense of place. I enjoy the behavior. Technical aspects are solid.

    Nice going on the pano format here, Doc, but I would still consider cropping out some from the LHS?
    Rachel made a good point on tweaking the colour balance a bit.
    Gotta love the Chobe elephants, right?

    Thanks everyone. Yes Morkel, I loved the opportunities Chobe provided me to photograph these wonderful Eles. I have many more to share. :-)

    Hello Sanjeev,

    Beautiful ellies in great light, and lovely detail as well as textures:)

    I too would crop a tad from the LHS, as per Morkel's comment above. A tad tight on the bottom but not a deal breaker. Subjects nice and sharp - well seen and captured, my friend!

    Chobe is indeed rewarding, so many opportunities! I look forward to more images from you Sanjeev, and really sorry to comment so late, missed out on some of your latest posts but I am going to go through each and every one and catch up on the past two weeks, no matter what it takes!

    Have a wonderful evening,
    Gabriela Plesea
