Nicely captured. I like the framing with the tree. The elephant seems to be looking right at you.

Hello Jagdeep

Beautiful subdued lighting allows the details to Shine! The eye/ear being crushed into the dead tree gives a feeling to the image:)
The detailed Scalloped ear tells a story too! The broken tusk seems to look like a Very sore Decaying tooth .

Thanks for Sharing this interesting Image.

Cool image Jagdeep. I like the burnt tree, which is an usual element of interest in a wildlife image. The extended ear is another eye-catching element. I would have preferred if the grasses had not overlapped the head as they do, although they are certainly not ruining the image. :toast:
