Wonderful detail, nice use of B&W! Just wish I could see all of his trunk. I realize you were zeroing in on the details in his ear, so it's a tough choice.

Stunning detail and this looks brilliant in b & w but I do wish you'd managed to include all the tusk and trunk. It seems to be neither a detailed close up nor a total portrait of the elephant sadly.

If it's possible for an animal to look tired and sad, this one does. Great shot and wonderful detail.

Excellent detail and texture in this very good b&w. Well done!

Never really an easy or sure-fired crop for an elephant, yet you did well with this.
The choice for black & white was a good one, and the details and textures show very well here. Well done.

interesting composition and great job getting pure white behind it. it's not like you can follow an elephant around with a background. amazing. 10
