This image can't have been taken in the Ngorongoro Crater, Basri. For one, there are no crater walls in the bg. Secondly, there are only bull elephants in the crater floor, no females or calves!

I agree that it wasn't taken in Ngorongoro Crater, but perhaps the gentlemen meant that it was taken in the Ngorongoro Conservation area, which encompassed Ngorongoro Crater and quite a bit of surrounding country. Regardless, it is a very cool image.

I like the overall effect. The white hot sky at top is a bit unfortunate, but rays emanating from there help a lot. The perspective and composition work very well. The processing appears over strong on sharpening on my monitor, evidenced by the bright halo around each individual elephant. If this is a raw capture, I feel you could apply careful selective processing to control both the sky and the halos, leaving you with a strongly appealing graphic image.

Hi Lon,
Thank you very much for your instructive comment. Of course this was a raw capture. Unfortunately I'am not good at photoshop.
But after your comment I've worked litle more on capture, I'd like to share a better result. (I believe might be much better result with correct photoshop aplications).
Your comment appretiated.
Thanks again.
