[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
(Cont'd from earlier post)Minutes after the elephant turned and went back, this female elephant charged at our gypsy. Thankfully this time our driver moved the gypsy, but this elephant increased her speed suddenly and came really close. This photograph is not great technically but will give an idea as to how close she came to our gypsy. She came so close, that she did not fit in the frame though i zoomed out! We were later on told that her name is Madhuri and that she has a history of being saddist! We were glad that it was not her earlier when our gypsy did not move!

Have a few frames of her coming close. Will create a collage soon and post it!

Hello Swati,
My personal view. You had cropped on the top and also the trunk. It is missing. But you focus on the top and you can see the shrink of the skin very well. Lovely view and carity. TFS Ganesh

Hello Swati
The second instalment does show how close the mock charge was..At 60mm it was vry close...despite the previous crit I like this picture a lot.
Best Regards
Paul
