Asian Elephant (Wild)

Manoj, the item that jumps out to me is the cut off foot. It is a good pose you caught this elephant in, detail in its skin is fine, but IMHO need more space on the bottom. I would take a look at croping this to more of a portrait, just to see what it is like. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Manoj. I really do like the active pose of this elephant. It has leg, trunk, tail (with missing tuft) and ear 'action' all in one frame! A feat in itself to do that as an elephant, let alone capture it in pixels! I do find it a great pity though that you clipped off the bottom of the front leg and that the other legs are close to the edge of the frame. Also a pity it does not have tusks, but that of course was etirely beyond your control.

PS: I couldn't help noticing your below average post to comment ratio and would like to take the opportunity to invite you to contribute more to these forums by also commenting and providing constructive feedback on other people's work. Ultimately the success of all the galleries are determined largely by the comments members leave on the images that are posted. If you're unsure or uneasy about commenting/"critiquing" there are several good resources on this website discussing it. Start right here:

and you'll find links to the the image posting guidelines and two articles on critiquing ("The Art of Image Critique" and "More Thoughts on Photo Critique.").

You may be surprised that you will probably learn even more from critiquing other people's work than from having your own work critiqued!
