"LARGE AND IN CHARGE" by Sandra Miller/ GRAFFITIMAGERY
The original photo I took in Botswana Africa this year. This young bull elephant was charging a herd of zebra, then decided to do the same to the safari vehicle.
This was our last glimpse I got of him as we backed up FAST!!

Ken THANK YOU for taking the time to write such a wonderful critique!!!
Yes you are exactly right about why I converted this piece in to more of a graphic design. My eyes as you probably know from my profile are bad...really bad.. The image I last remembered of that awesome and intimidating creature was an ominous "form", moving very quickly toward me. I have never had a true adrenaline rush like this!!! I was so scared yet at the same time so riveted behind the lens to get the perfect shot.
Ohhhhhh how I want to go back soon!!
Nice job. I like thinking about the fact the original image was made at a moment you were probably a bit worried about your immediate future. Knowing that fits the graphic force brought about by the four tones and the abbreviated background. -ken
