There is another elephant behind the elephant in front. İt looks double trunks and 4 tusks elephant.
This capture was completely by chance. Actually I did not notice while taking the photo.
I know Technical quality of photo not so good. But I'd like to share this interesting chance moment.

2 commentsThat's an interesting "optical illusion" - with a little Photoshop work in removing the very small amount of visible hind leg you could likely sell this to some tabloid style gossip newspaper (as a rare 2 Trunk, 4 Tusk elephant from Mars!).
Good job seeing and capturing this...
Cheers...

PS: Please don't hesitate to jump in and comment on the images of others - I know the recommended ratio of 5 comments for every image post can be tough to maintain, but getting a little closer to this comment:image ratio would be appreciated. I know many newer members are a little hesitant to leave comments, but ultimately the success of all the galleries are determined largely by the comments members leave on the images that are posted. And, I'm sure you'll find that once you get into the regular practice of creating your own critiques that you'll think more about, and improve, your own photography.
If you're unsure or uneasy about commenting/"critiquing" there are several good resources on this website discussing it. Start right here:

This page discusses the critiquing process and provides links to a number of articles on critiquing ("The Art of Image Critique" and "More Thoughts on Photo Critique.").
