Great perspective, Pinetree. A childs view of a wonderful large elephant. Good story in the photograph.

Thanks for your comment. I was trying to get the elephant and the domed roof area of the rotunda in the same shot. I tried a few traditional shots, which were ok, but unimpressive. Then, I tried a few from down near the base, like this. I chose this one, because it was somewhat unusual and left the impression of the elephant walking.

Great Photo Alex!! I like your low perspective making the elephant look very large, especially it's rear leg. This photo makes me feel really small :-)

Just got back from a trip to DC. Have a few photos to share.
