    Default Communication at Dusk

    In 2007 I spent half of September in a very dry Hwange National Park.

    The only image I have a print of in my house.

    Canon 5D
    500 F4 + 1.4 tele
    1/250 @ f5.6
    ISO 100
    Bean Bag

    Pano Crop

    Silhouettes are not normally my cup of tea but I like this one. I hope you got back to camp before dark?

    Great silhouette! Like the raised trunks of both elephants.

    I really like this, great interaction, light, silhouettes and interesting composition, too. Does it need a tad CW rotation?

    Nice crispness, great colors, and good interaction between the two elephants. Nicely done.

    Agree with the others here, silhouettes are all about definition and good separation, you have both in spades Russell!
    Sig is a little distracting however.

    Thanks for all the comments.
