I gave this a 7. I liked the composition but, criticism; the feet cropped was a fairly minor issue, but mainly it was the pp effects (looked like burning/dodging) that seemed a little 'too much' that it started to detract from the natural 'feel' of this, in my opinion.

Cool lighting and colors. I think this would be a little better if the elephant's feet were in the shot. Good going otherwise!

Great capture, but I find it a bit over processed.

Not sure im satisfied wiht the processing. Think the burning of the ground and the blurr doesnt make the image more interesting.

Looks toooo dreamy for this kind of subject. the composition I feel is somewhat imbalanced..

You cut off his feet! With a title like "Running Wild", we especially need to see his feet, IMO

I like the soft glow effect. I wish the feet weren't cropped out. It makes it seem like I'm missing sometehing.
