Oh man Harsha! You have really outdone yourself with these images! Incredible Elephant images, some of the finest I have seen on here. The birds are spectacular as well although maybe a little noise reduction on the background wouldn't hurt. Man oh man, way to go, incredible!
First three of the elephants with the hard contrast and great color are really a treat Harsha, masterful way to handle that kind of light. #6 makes me chuckle, just like a kid playing in the dirt
Nice light on the Heron and KF, some NR on BG would be nice to set these off IMO.
Wow, Bee Eater is stunning! Great pose and lovely BG on the Cormie, that is a very different pose for a Cormie.
Great way to start off your New Year, thanks for sharing them

Harsha, your talent and high standards are on display with these. Those first 3 elephant shots have wonderful light - very sharp, vivid and storytelling. My other favs are the Bee Eater, which you processed beautifully - and the Leopard.
