Mario: love the tones and textures you've captured in both elephants. You've also captured their isolation on this vast plane. My only nit is that it needs a slight CCW correction and maybe a bit more contrast in the grasses. Richard

Mario,
A simple but delightful image, good detail and depth , perhaps should be called "Come on Sun"

I appreciate the slight head turn towards the baby and the lifted foreleg, adding much to the capture.

Hello Mario
Great to see Mom being attentive with the little guy.

A wonderful setting this mother and her youngster to stroll through, those clouds and lone tree make this photo for me.
Sweet One Mario!
