Meant to get this one the other day sg but time got away from me an poof...it was gone.
Elephants are one of my favorite animals and, of course, one I never see. I think the social hierarchy of the elephant family is fascinating. Focus is very good and with the B&W conversion it shows lots of detail in those big bodies. Light handled very well too. Crop a tad tight on left frame but still you got a lot of them into your photo.
Nicely presented sg.

This is nice. I like the black and white. But a small tint in sepia would look very nice. May be a HRD to show how hot it is. This needs a bit of perking up. More drama.

They have the appearance of being on a long trek. I like the black and white presentation but might crop off a bit from the bottom.

The black and white image works well showing the herd of elephants well, a little too tightly cropped in front of elephant on right but overall good presentation.

Fred,
A beautiful picture of this Elephant Family of Females & their Calves heading towards the Water Hole under the hot African sun. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
