Dear Viewers of NPN,

Please do not beat me up for this. I take the word "close up" at face value.

This is a close up image of the elephants trunk. While the image is close up, the overall subject is Jumbo Size. I really did not know where to post this.

Scott, please feel free to move this to an appropriate gallery. My apologies am confused as to where to post this.

7D, 70-200

Thanks NPN for your support

Balan Vinod

Balan - Wow !. Incredible details. Even the small nicks on the skin are so nicely seen along with the hairs. Unique.

An elephant's trunk??? Really. I would not have guessed, Balan, and it would have been an interesting to see how many guesses it took before anyone got it. Very unique and imaginative close-up, and it is quite appropriate here in this gallery as far as I am concerned, although you could also post it anytime in wildlife as well. :toast:

p.s., Love the title, too, now that I get it. :wink:
