These look familiar to me, but then not. Still a beautiful sight, in any latitude. Onto my top shelf you go. Thank you.

Another thing that strikes me on this photo is "breaking the rule" here works. Generally, at least the way I've learned it, is you don't want your subject running out of the frame. Here, the boat is exiting fast! :-) But it works. I think the diagonal line of the wake is also helpful. If this was shot where the boat was moving horizontal to you I don't think it would have the same impact.

Nicely toned, and I like the composition and how the one elephant is away from the heard. The subtle darkening of the top and bottom really draw the eye in, and it's very visually pleasing overall.

Great choice for a miniaturization effect.

It appears there is a ballet in session. Or at least a rehearsal. Quite lovely!

Has that look of photographing a miniature that was/is so popular and that I do not really care for.

I think this might be my only 10 for the challenge, although I'm only 63 photo's into voting yet, but I can feel this is a very special photo. A memory, an event a story, wonderfully edited to give it just that right feel.

It's not only that I like so much this picture but I learned of this Park for the first time. How interesting this straying from the herd....the story it tells...

Cool effect, and nicely composed.
