Asian Elephant
I converted the color image to B&W, then added a base texture/color. Then added several more textures (from Shadowhouse) using the marque tool to limit them to parts of the image, always maintaining the elephant in the base texture/color. Thanks Steve for the idea from your beautiful Nautilius image.
Great capture and B&W conversion, Nancy! Like the pose, and your creative use of shapes, warm neutral colors, and textures really makes for a pleasing composition.
Very cool Nancy and also very creative! I would have never thought to do that! I was hoping you would come home with some great shots to share and you did! Love this. I might add just a touch more grass where the feet are touching?
Hi Nancy, very nice creativity for this one and great elephant image for the base. Lovely work!
Nice work, Nancy.

Well done, colors match very nicely, very OOTB, god I'd love to go to India..TFS
Beautiful, Nancy. Love the background. I agree with Denise about adding a little grass back in near the feet. Really very creative image.
Thanks everyone! I thought about the grass issue partway thru and it is nearly impossible to recapture something late in the process. I end up changing my mind and redoing the image too many times.
