This is such a great elephant shot! I love it! I almost entered one of an elephant just having taken a drink, but I'm glad I didn't because this one is so much better. You have a great foreground and background, and the composition of the elephant is wonderful!!! Excellent job!!!!

Having a spelling error in your title makes me think you don't really care enough about the pic and lessens the impact.

Great shot! Unique pose too. Beautiful colors & background. Highlights on the blue areas are a little strong (IMHO), but hard not to give this one a high mark. 7

color in this shot is quite good. the yellow platform complements the blue and green nicely. however, i have to agree with what many of the other commenters have said: there are almost TOO many lines here to define which are supposed to be the focus.

"leading lines" are supposed to either draw you into the photo or draw your attention to look at something. this photo suffers from too many conflicting lines and doesn't lead the viewer anywhere. without the title, there wouldn't be much of a subject at all.

Quite nice in all ways. Also, I like the natural setting the dragonfly is among.
