    Dramatic shot Giovanni

    I think that I would consider having less space on the right

    It's an attractive shot, as your last one was

    I think space in right side give more idea of walking...

    Hi Gio - Very dramatic lighting. If it were mine I would tone down the highlights in the rocks on the lhs. I do think there's a bit of magenta and blue coming through on the trunk and a red cast to the ele. The b&w conversion works well. I do wish the ele was one or two more steps into the frame because to me it feels like the body is cut off.

    Don't forget to comment on other people's images.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    The red cast on the Ellie isn't an issue to me, if its under a warm spot light and the sand he may have been bathing/dust bathing then the color is good.

    I like the B&W....Very nice.

    I prefer the B&W.
    I think space on the right is good to give it room to move into but in this case the amount unbalances the image because to little of the elephant is easily visible.

    Hi Gio -- I really liked this frame ! And I think Rachel has very nicely summed up her thoughts with which i totally agree . And the B&W version is quite nice as well . A nice image nonetheless .

    TFS !

    Beautiful image I like both versions. I would suggest a little more room on top.
