I love the hikey processing. It looks like pen and ink.

Looks like a cold wintery scene. The only thing I dont like is the retaining wall, takes away from the natural feel of the image.

the complexity of the textures of the stone wall and the snow in the foreground provide such a realistic experience - i can almost feel the snow crunch

One of the best animal pictures I’ve seen here – I like the natural look of the image and how you captured the lioness stare – better start running!!! :-D

Incredibly powerful image. I just had to come back to see if you had shared the story behind this one, so thank you for taking the time to share it. This close up shot makes so much more of an impact than if you had just shown us the entire elephant. I'm sad that this shot was even available for you to capture, since it just isn't fair to this magnificent creature, but I thank you for taking the time to capture this and share it with all of us. Congrats on a fantastic score and placing in the challenge!
