• "And now the elephants dance real funky and the band plays like a jungle fire / Circus town's on the live wire" (Bruce Springsteen)
  We can look right into the soul of this elephant. A mighty fine picture, Jim, of my favourite animal. Beautiful is too less word. That is a perfect frame & a brilliant processing. Thanks for showing us this beauty. All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

• you caught some beautiful textures and I really like the composition. Did you see the last Photolife issue? It has great elephant pictures... yours would fit right in.

• This is a great shot. From the circus? I have tried photography elephants at the zoo and it's always that easy! I love this profile shot, the detail and particularly the toning!
