| Serene and moving, but the smart-ass in me is having difficulty resisting the temptation to comment about a stellar self portrait. Fun to see you on the front page. |

Well, I'll be... I'd love to offer a warm, witty, and insightful essay, but I'll just stick with "this makes me smile". I will add, however, that the prickly bit off to the right is somehow a stern message, even sterner than that of your title, making sure that we all understand the significance of this marvelous beast.
Oh, and nice going with that ribbon thingie. |

| A favorite of mine......the plight of these beautiful giants is terribly sad, and your image touched on those emotions for me. Congrats on the ribbon. |

Paul, you might want to change the subject now that you got so much appreciation. Something became fishy.
After all the elephant pictures, I would like you to turn your iphone around and show us (me) the place where you stand, where you eat your breakfast, your lunch (oh, and yes, I am quite a good cook or I won't be called an "artist") or the corner of your street.
Are you that close to Kruger Park? You must understand that even that Central Park has more bird species that Yellowstone, living in NYC still makes me still a city mouse with immense curioisty. |

It's because he would hardly fail to recognise the plodding spoor of the elephant man, and he's long given up despairing of my love of excessive vignettes. |
