Exquisite image, Jagdeep. The intimate scene of these elephants is the best I have ever seen. You've captured detail wonderfully too. My highest praise.

Again I saw the thumbnail and instantly knew it had to be yours :wink: . I like this a lot. The composition particularly is strong with those heads mirrored in a diagonal line. The eye of the top elephant is a strong focal point with that eye-white showing. My only (very small) nit with this is the OOF ele in the BG...

The clarity in the details here is exquisite Jagdeep!
Soft light really helped you here...great moment too. Love the eye contact.

Beautiful image again Jagdeep. I like the sharpness and exposure used. As mentioned the only "distraction" the OOF els in the BG. Minor nip on an awesome pic. Well done!
