A nice encounter Sanjeev and it looks different with the two adults and two calves. DoF looks good but more SS. I like it being slightly off set to the left, do you have any more below??? I would be tempted to loose the green in the bottom LHC for continuity, but maybe add some Contrast & a hint more USM on the main two Adults.
Very nice Sanjeev situation and I'm guessing there was some thin high cloud as the lighting doesn't look like full sun nor full shade here? Colour may be slightly out here - maybe a bit too yellow? But be warned I don't have the best monitor setup either so that may not be a reliable assessment. See what others have to say. Detail looks excellent but the tones look a bit flat to me. Steve's suggestion of some enhanced contrast on the animals may help and give them the 'pop' that I think would lift this.
Hi Sanjeev - A nice grouping. Would love to have seen more of the calves but that grass looks high. Good suggestions from Steve and Glenn to take this up a notch. I would also prefer it to be less 50/50 between sky and grass.
Wonderful Image here. TFS.
Agree with steve that a contrast addition would make it more lively. Colours may need a looking as well. The sky is too flat IMHO.
Sanjeev, Nice interaction here in soft light. Personally I am always drawn to the young in this type of grouping, so unfortunate that the grass is over the eyes of the calfs. But a crop with a bit less sky would be good.

Hi Sanjeev a fine clean shot with a nice low POV .A lovely little grouping of the Ellies , but i wish the smaller ones would be more visible ... i bet you too .
Lovely soft pastel colors and the tones are fitting well to the soft light , i would not add any contrast to the elephants . If you think you should ...then very soft handed
POV is great, lovely pose from the two adult ellies. I like the colours and tonality but somehow wish for a little more "oomph", especially on the ellie situated on the LHS of the frame. As well as more space below - just a tad if you have?
I take it Masai Mara was extremely rewarding in terms of sightings. And sincerely hope you delight us with more from this trip. Do you happen to have some baby ellie shots as well?
