An image with of lot of “mood”. I like the position of the elephant and the gnoe/wildebeest (I think it is), low in the image. Great sense of space. The choice to show the animals as silhouettes against the warm sky is a good one, to me.
There are a few tiny dark spots in the lower part of the sky, birds maybe? I could think of removing these. There is also something vague, just left of the elephant, rising from the trees in the sky. You could remove that as well. But that’s nitpicking.
A beautiful African sky Sandipan, the animals help to tell us where we are, and what looks like a slight mist adds real atmosphere to the shot.
Great composition … mainly sky
Nicely balanced subjects here, Sandipan. The elephant is silhouetted nicely… while the antelope is not (but that’s fine for the secondary subject, and in fact, makes it more likely we’ll pause and look!). The colors are lovely, of course, but I’m glad you have some layers of background cutting across the frame to break up what otherwise might be an empty canvas.
@Max_Waugh Hi Max, Thanks much for the feedback and sharing your detailed observation. I completely agree that the layers in the background complement the foreground subjects nicely .
