    Ken,
    Pretty interesting. I like this one. The habitat has come out well. Thanks for sharing.

    Ken, I really like this. The tonal range is beautiful, details well captured and the trunk on the leading elephant is priceless. Surrounding grasses have retained detail and form. I'd possible consider cropping a little off the right. Not to put down any of your previous photos from the Hwange trip, but this is definitely my favourite.

    Ken - I like this a lot, great detail and feel. I agree that I might try taking a little from the rhs.

    They are in step and lined up well ... just staggered to upset the breeze from the left .. must have been watching the Tour :)

    Just a little of the right but do like this a lot !!! Images with triples seem to do very well !!!!

    Great comp and I like the placement of the elephants! The soft light really brings out the nice details in the skin.

    Thanks for all of the comments, I agree that perhaps a litle from the RHS would be better.

    Hwange is to my mind the best place to get interesting Elephant images, the major problem is keeping an eye on all that is happening, a nice problem to have:)

    Great shot Ken. I like that the eye and tusk of the middle one isn't seen. Also like the soft light and the habitat.
