oh that sidelight does wonders, doesn’t it? Great texture and form - really makes them have presence which I’m sure they do IRL. And who doesn’t love a baby elephant?!? OMG that little trunk. Absolutely precious. The water splashes adds a lot to the tonal range and the background is to die for. Another winner.

A very cool shot @JRajput . The elephants really stand out against that background. And, as @Kris_Smith said, who doesn’t love baby elephants? Well done.
