Elephant calf under the caring shadow of mother.
It's an old photo, but until now, I was just not able to process it decently.
Thank you so much for your kind attention & views!

Very effective composition Jagdeep. The little elephant is too cute. Processing looks very good.

The positoinof the young elephant really emphasizes the massive size of its mother. Wonderful story telling image!

Glad you finally processed this tender scene. Love the textured skin detail and close up of the feet of the mother.One does not always get to see how very different the feet of an elephant arre.The calf looks so content sheltered under Mom's tummy.You have captured perfectly how protective of her calf the mother elephant is.
