I tried several times to get a good backdrop for this elephant. I ended up propping it up on a chair and using my black dishwasher as a backdrop. I am pleased with the outcome.

The flash is too harsh on the pic, making it look over exposed, and losing the beauty of the pic.

I like the crop and border. I think the frontal lighting is a little too much. The hilights behind the eye are a little harsh. But an interesting capture otherwise.

I like the lighting used on the wood compared against the background. I like it also how the background isn't just black and has some colour in it (down the bottom)

I THINK FEET AND EARS SHOULD ALSO BE IN FRAME...

Nicely lit. Only nitpick is a touch of glare, which I have had trouble keeping suppressed as well.
