    Hi all,
    I went in for a head shot of this elephant as it was flaring its ears (waited for the moment) at the Chobe river, Botswana. The light was getting nice as it was evening around 4pm....

    Hi Sanjeev - Nice detail and textures brought out. The dried mud adds a lot. PP looks good. I just find the comp sort of in between. With the head slightly angled rather than a straight on frame-filling image, I might have gone even tighter. Just personal preference. Any chance you experimented with a few different shots?

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Hi Sanjeev -- Agree with Rachel on a more tighter crop , should work in my opinion , nice details you have got here and IQ will certainly stand a tighter crop . TFS !
