Thanks to ML M (Michael) for the brilliant title. And thanks everybody for

your help in choosing the cover of my next book. Much appreciated. This

is a review from the last one.

It is a stunning picture, at the right time at the right place. It attracts the attention for a short time but then it's over. The giraffes are much better suited for a book cover. Karl

As much as I obviously like this image, although I don't find it nearly as transient as Karl does, I also think the giraffes offer a more illustriative representation of Africa and more suitable for a book cover.

 

That said, thiis shot remains one of the most unique elephant shots I've seen and brings an immediate smile.  I hope this is the centerfold of your book ;-)...  Mike

So smoking really is bad for you........look at the wrinkles on this guy : - )

Seriously though, this must be unique as a photograph, as well as capturing the moment, the detail and dof are  spot on!

 

Sincere Compliments!

Definitely an eye catching image.  But I find the title too cute, for me it conflicts with the nature of this magnificent animal, it is not true to the subject. Again just my personal response.

This is a stunning and totally unique shot.  I have seen images of elephants fussing with dust many times but never anything close to this.  Also, love the title - truly does look like a sheep.

 

Super work as usual...
