Very nice, Sandipan. The raised leg gives it a sense of motion. Excellent detail. Nice light and a pleasing composition.

Sandipan: What @Allen_Brooks said and it’s kind of serendipitous that his trunk seems to be extended by the cloud. Nicely done. >=))>

Very nice pose here. My initial reaction was that the overlap with the cloud is an unfortunate overlap, but given that the pose of the trunk sort of makes the image in the first place, the “extension” is kind of a fun element.
