Hi,
As we travel through this majestic & pristine aura of JimCorbettPark, situated in Northern part of Indian state of Uttaranchal. It’s scenic beauty & rustic environment empowered you. We were privileged & blessed to visit this park in this summer, we enjoyed every bit of it.
In this shot elephants were grazing for hours, as they were with their babies, they allowed us so close.

Fabulous shot Amol. Personally, I'd crop about half of the grass at the front of the shot.

Good work - you seem to know your way around that 400D!

Hi,
Yes but if I did that I will lost the blur in front & lost the depth also. Lets have a look at cropped version.

I said half - you've gotten rid of most of it... and I agree that looks (and is) wrong.

EDIT: Now you've reposted the correctly cropped image, I think it's much better, but don't lose any sleep over it

I agree with Shannon. The cropped photo is more appealing to me, the hills in the back ground being closer round it of nicely for me anyway. But saying that I liked the first photo as well. Thanks for sharing.
