[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
the ark, aberdare, kenya
i have posted quite a lot in the past on elephants which i love and saw a tv programme on them..the presenter has tracked on herd for 15 years and is known personally to the great beasts who come close and 'talk' to him...
he has been experimenting with black to white photography for his work..
so i tried some as well with older yet unposted shots from the 2005 kenya visit..
give me some practice on contrast and manipulation etc
cheers

Hi Geof

What a superb B&W portrait of this lovely elephant!
The contrast is really nice here and you've managed it greatly - although B&W can be a handfull sometimes.
All those "wrincles" on its face look amazing and the framing works really well here!
Great work!

Bravo and TFS
