Hi TrekLens:
This is my other image of the elephant. I was struck with the tenderness that this elephant was displaying to this little kid and the little kid was so free with this beast...
Best wishes
David

Usual style David,
Magic moments, and this is in each case, a marvelous motive in mad colors. Beautiful conversion.
Well done.

Hello David.
Here in Holland we would say "A strange duck in the pool".
Very cute picture you shows here. Good work on it.

What a beautiful and inspiring moment! It's too bad that humans have trouble being this kind and gentle sometimes. Photographically, I was at first disappointed to see the sky so washed out, but later decided it gave greater contrast to the elephant's form and behavior. Overall, I just enjoyed seeing this "story" happening:)

Hello David,

Wonderful photo, original idea and very well done. TFS

A rare sight indeed, David. Nature can be beautiful, even though elephants are not the most well-shaped, well proportioned of all animals, I feel awe for their intelligence, gentle behaviour and immense strength.
Well seen, well captured.
