Ian, there are several things that I particularly like about your image, the first being your creative spirit in imagining that it would all come together considering the degree of difficulty involved with low iso and visibility and elephant motion. I love your use of both moonlight and lodge lighting to illuminate the image and reflect it in the watering hole. The elephant's presence have a ghostly or spiritual quality that adds context and interest.

Ian: there's a uniqueness to the photo that I appreciate. The elephants, their reflections and the moonlit scene are a treat. Amazingly sharp foe a 2 second exposure. Congrats! Richard

I, too, find this to be hauntingly compelling. It is great to see someone photographing "out of the box." Reflections are key to the impact, too.
