Thanks Carole. The elephants seem to be pretty well cared for with lots of land and adequate man power. May be you could visit one day

Nice storytelling shot Debi. It makes me sad to know that there is even a need for an orphanage for elephants as that means that many of the mature ones are slaughtered for their parts. :-( It is heartwarming though, to know that people are trying to preserve and protect these magnificent creatures.

Glad you liked it Helen - getting the light right was a struggle and I am still playing around with the image

Very powerful capture, and that toning is perfect for it.

Excellent picy Debi & the wide angle sky looks great wiv these poor little orphans. Do the elephants live out their lives here or are they set loose in Bombay:-)

Very nice - both the subject and the processing. That sky is awesome.

Nice catch Debi. I like it. Reminds me of the few years I spent in Ivory Coast when I was a kid.

Nice to know there is a happy place for orphaned elephants to go :-) Great image Debi, that WA really adds a sense of motion and drama to the sky. Did you get to pet any of the orphans?
