i think for this motiv its perfect. because of that, the structure of their skin is standing out so much. its very interesting how much wrinkles elefants have. 🙂
yes, I feel the same way! They are very weathered..
This is really gorgeous, Gail. I love the editing. Very painterly, I think. It’s an unusual treatment that’s very effective with elephants since it emphasizes their skin.

Looks like a painting 🙂

A sweet scene!
It was a great family trip and I think there were about 20 elephants at this watering hole.
An exciting adventure! Adorable family. You captured in this picture what family means… Which is bring there for each other. Thanks.
I couldn’t have said it better!!!
There is nothing quite as beautiful and inspiring as that of a family of elephant…
The whole experience was quite amazing! We could have reached out and touched them.
I love elephants. This is a beautiful image! ~amy

Thanks, I thought it could use just something to spiff it up and extenuate their skin!
