Interesting Khaos, but kinda bland. I think maybe pull back get the eye as well, or the other way much closer in maybe just a couple of those wrinkles something like that maybe

But ya see my sig below so don't go by me

Another interesting shot. The shot doesn't work for me mainly because the subject, an elephant's mouth ain't all that interesting to me. Its basically a dark area with no details to hold my interest.

Thanks for the comments.


I like it because its different. You know it's an elephants mouth even if I leave out the tusk. It's wrinkly, ugly, with strangly hair, and yet to me, it's still beautiful.

It's a personal thing. I'm experimenting with different views of animals we always see certain ways in pictures.

And yes, that means not showing those darn eyes all the time. Call me the indie animal photgrapher who strays occassionaly from those mainstream shots.:D

Elephants are my favorite animal, but I agree it's missing something--- if you had the eyes in it too that might be just a tad better

I think you have a good idea with your series of shots concentrating on parts of the animals' bodies. I really liked the earlier bear series. I'm looking forward to seeing more shots in the same vein.

Keep them coming.
