I'm very encouraged at the response, my last elephant photo generated. Here's another one, bit of abstract.
Thankyou so much for your kind attention & views !

Nice work, Jagdeep. The only tweak I could find would be to perhaps (very subjective) take a slight crop from the top...I would suggest just enough to put the shadow contrast edge of the ear into the exact corner of the frame.

again: a subject in the crowd. you are a wizard in composing such images. On my screen it appears to be too bright with the consequence of loosing details. but it could be my monitor. good work as usual even if i preferred your previous one. Cheers,Luca

Hi Jagdeep,
I like this shot, but I have to admit that I found the previous one more appealing. What I like most here is the texture of the skin and I do find that one out-stretched trunk appealing. My eye struggled a little in finding a "visual anchor" here, i.e., a main subject to draw my eye. I have to echo Luca's comment about the brightness - the elephants do look a tad too bright here for my taste (and on my monitor it also appears that the skin is just slightly over-sharpened - it will be interesting to see if others see the same thing).
Cheers and thanks for sharing yet another interesting shot!
Brad

Nice image, Jagdeep! I really like the texture of the skin of the elephants. For composition I would have liked to see the eye of the big elephant just above the youngster or a tighter crop.
