Great photograph. I think the use of black and white really captures the elephant better than color ever could.

She was just to magnificent to pass up. Such a beautiful and Very elegant animalEditing
Changed to black and white, and cut out the background. Toned down some of the natural over light. Changed some highlights to essentially frame her her best features especially the ears and face.In my camera bag
