Comment from Mara del Mar
This is a very tender scene. Love the reflections and great lighting, like nice composition and excellent shading, nice color, texture, and frame. Well done.

Beautiful colors and wonderful detail in this piece Suzanne. Terrific lighting with a wonderful reflection of mom's trunk. You really have done a great job on this piece.

Comment from Tony B
Another nice piece I favor, you cant beat a pack of elephants. What I like about this is the reflecting of the two lead elephants, neatly done Susanne. I also like the elephants bringing up the rear, clouded in mist, tremendous stuff

Love the sweet moment you created here Suzanne. Both mom and calf are fabulous and the shadow like reflections of the two are superb.
Great details and lovely textures.
Nice work Suzanne!

Comment from jo-cal
love this picture, being an elephant lover myself, ( have a least 3 statues at home of elephants), you have captured the strong, but gentle nature, of these lovely animals, love the slightly pinkish, blue, against the grey, reflection done really well, such a beautiful image, very well done. love it.

Many thanks, Doris, for your very nice review. No, not seen the other post of elephants yet. Suzanne

Comment from DawnHold
Love it! This is a real hanger. Stunning composition of the mother and calf with the others way off in the distance, very apt title for this as well. Great use of colour and nice depth. I think you are right on canvas you would have achieved more texture, still a stunning picture. Very well done.
