 I just thought a glass elephant was an interesting object to shoot. This is my first submission for the website, and I hope to have a chance to improve my skills and creativity when it comes to the challenges. I'd appreciate any feed back. Thanks :)

Pretty cool shot, love the lighting and mood in this one, this looks real like it´s actually gigantic and in the middle of a rain forest in a storm. 7 from me.

Interesting composition and unusual shot. The fact that you chose to shoot this in the rain adds interest to the photo.

Very nice "set up" of a glass figurine! Would make a nice cover of a children's book.

Getting near the water with your camera - either you have equipment I don't have or you are just alot braver than I am! Focus and DOF are great. I would be interested in seeing what it would look like if there was more light on the grass creating a warmer, more colorful image.

I like the lighting in the rain. It's almost as if the elephant is bathing.
