Elephant butts-- I love elephant butts! You did a great job of cropping for composition on this one. --Nancy/odigi

All that extra skin makes it look springy - I want to pull out the tail and let it go so I can watch it "BOING!!!". I guess that means I've been drawn into the image, so that's supposed to be a very good thing. ;) ~ Lonnit

This is a great picture, Gerald! You can almost feel the texture of the skin -- not that you'd want to, mind you. ;) - Jeannie Burleson (jburly)

Dear Gerald:

You've gotta love these, both this and the Peacock. They perfectly match, at least in my mind, what the challenge is. Great work, Sir.

Best wishes,
Traveller
