stockphotojourney,
Confused yet? You can show it to a hundred people and get that many variations on it. In the end, one version will appeal to you and you'll live with it.
That we try to discover what a person is looking at, is instinctive. If we come into a photo from the left to the right, see the elephant looking left, we bounce off that look to see what it's looking at, nothing there, back to elephant, stay there a while, absorb what we see while there. Grab a big catalog or anything with hundreds of photos and see which ones keep your attention longest.
This elephant is better; crop is tight and distracting. Lighting is varied; more to the front on the left side would get the eye and balance the difference in light color more. It's a good subject to study lighting with. Good work-in-progress.
