I wondered when I saw a picture Bayram for and they're and and it was dedicated to you and or perhaps it was a critique and he mentioned as a local crit. I now understand why it. Bayramdoes a very good job of teaching and is not too big in the head and yet knows how to pass along all the knowledge that he has so well. He does the same with me. He gives me encouragement. He gives me credit sometimes when I feel I am not do it. He teaches in a way that I cannot explain in words but I know when I hear the words and read them and this picture shows well how he has taught you. You are also scored a very good photographer.

Great! You are back with your Jim Corbett Park theme, Goldy.
First of all, your observation about the groups of three elephants or multiples thereof is quite interesting. Sounds cedible.
Regarding your picture of this group of three, it is an adorable scenario you have captured. The baby elephant is almost hidden behind its mother (my assumption). The other one, I can presume, is its elder sibling -- going by the medium size of it. This is a very basic family presided over by the matriarch.
The image is very good in technical terms. The ambience is authentic and the animals are in a state of contentment, browsing around in the tall grasses.
Sorry, I could not reciprocate to your critiques on my recent work promptly. As a matter of fact, I really have been inordinately busy these days.
Thanks and regards.

A good picture of elephant shot in its typical habitat, i also like the way the calf is hiding behind the parent.
And these grasses are called elephant grass right?

Hey goldy,

Nice photograph! I couldn't see those big creatures in my flying visit to Jim Corbett 2 years back. Got to see many other animals but the elephants. Good to see that you have got a series of snaps at different locations. The baby elephant behind its mother is also cute!

Thanks for sharing,
Kedar

A fine study of a family scene in the wild Goldy, and a nice diversion from your recent "my garden" series my friend. Bayram will love your dedication, I'm sure...
Cheers,

hello Goldy,
Very vivid and interesting shot. Good idea to make a series on these fabulous animals. And I didn't know that they are good mathematicians;-)
Amazing! Beautiful and natural shot.
Thanks so much
Kind regards

Hello Goldy,
You note about elephants gathering in threes or its multiples is interesting and there may be something in: they are supposed to be intellegent. I think there is a saying: two's company but three is a crowd!
Nice one what looks like a mother and her two children in a pleasing composition with some action in the long grass - the tail!
Thanks and all the best,
Ivan

Hello Goldy,
Last year I should come to the Jim Corbett Park in your country with a small group of photographers. But there wasn't interest enough. So the journey was canceled. Now I see what I've missed.
Very good photo in a very nice composition and frontal POV. Beautiful natural colours and good sharpness.

Peter

Hi Bro,

A wonderful dedication to our brother!!! I love this elephant family. I had the pleasure of seeing a baby in Africa and will never forget him. Unfortunately the only elephants I saw in India had people riding on them. A lovely grouping in a nice setting. Wish I was there.
