Young Elephant catching up with mom.
I was just wondering that, never posted an African Elephant here.
Thank you so much for your kind attention & views!

Beautiful image of this cute little elephant! I especially like the position of the trunk and tail and the motion blur of the feet, which shows the motion.

This is so cute Jagdeep. Low shutter speed worked for you here, because I too like the motion blur of the feet.

Wow, I think this is ideal leg, tail and trunk position for running baby! I like the catchlight, too.

Well done with just enough blur in the legs to reveal motion.

Awesome exposure and sharpness, the slight motion blur in the legs shows movement very effectively. Good clean look at this cute youngster.

Very nice shot. Your shutter speed seems perfect, in that the feet and tail are showing the motion, yet the body and eye are sharp. Cute shot that makes me smile.
