p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Elephant in black and white

Last week while in a blind photographing chestnut headed bee eater in a national park,
a young elephant came out of the forest to visit us so there was a little excitement and a little
impromptu cardiovascular exercise.

And perhaps got a bit closer than you thought he would! Those tiny eyes are still piercing, wow that would definitely have gotten my heart rate up too.
And these Chestnut Headed Bee Eaters?? Pics

Two engaging images. Have you tried lifting the shadows a bit?

Thanks, I did not lift the shadow much as I wanted to keep the leaves pattern dark but I guess I could use layer mask to lift
shadown on the face a bit more while leaving the leaves shadow dark.

It was a lot of fun and lucking the park rangers were not too far away. Once they came, then it was good time photographing
