[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Photo taken in the natural park of Etoshan Pan. It was at the end of the day, 3 elephants were standing just on the side of the road.
I have though it could be a nice picture for St Valentin.
Hope you enjoy.

OH--- Can I make this my Valentine?! What a lovely photo to share for the holiday. Beautiful shot. So crisp. What an expressive animal photograph.

Yes indeed, it is a nice picture for today’s posting. They are lovely and it seams they were enjoying their play. I have seen this type of play many times at parks on the other side of the border, in Angola. The B&W was a quite good option as elephants do not have much colour. Well done.

Hi Yves.
E amore fu.
Bella foto ben composta e ben eseguita.

Hi Yves, A very beautiful photo of two mannificent animals, great focus, great capture & B/W gives good impact, love it & they love each other, kind regards Wilson.

Et oui, pour la Saint Valentin on a ici une une photo pleine de tendresse et d'amour. J'aime le cadrage et le format carré, le faible contraste adouci encore plus le resultat.
C'est bien reussi.

Hello,

Magnfique photo qui illustre bien la St.-Valentin, avec ces éléphants, mon animal préféré, touchant et merveilleux.

Bravo et belle soirée.

Yves,
A fantastic one...
I would have loved to see the colour version of the same...
The B&W processing is nice with details & action intact.

Hi Yves. Nice photo. The B&W conversion was a good choice. Well captured and well presented. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Nice shot !

B&W is a good idea and symmetry is reinforcing the picture, but on my opinion, your picture is too "grey" and not enough B&W...

D'ailleur, Reponse photo, viens de publier un bon article pour la conversion en Noir et blanc et la gestion de la densité, à lire !

Hello Yves
excellent capture!
But why have you chosen B&W?
I think it could be more impressive in colors!
Katia
