Wonderful magic hour (false light) shot. Great wallpaper -- but maybe a little PS magic on the big guy's Johnson?

Excellente photo prise à l'heure magique. Mais peut-être vous pourriez employer encore de la magie du PS au Monsieur Johnson? (Je sais, ce ne soit pas de la nature!)

I wanted to preserve this light (I was scared to use a flash...)
What's 'the big guy's Johnson'?

Tracy: I received your email. The picture is more clear, but it becomes more grainy. I prefer to keep the mystery of the dark picture. Thanks :-)

Fâché? Moi? Jamais...

31.08.03 Je m'excuse, Pierre. Je me suis rendu compte en fin que Chris parlait de l'éléphant, pas au sujet de moi-même!

Pigeon, Is this a shot of a desert elephant in northern Namibia? Very good shot. Love it.

its such a beautiful photo! did you create the light yourself in photoshop or was that natural? Its such a great photo but makes me so sad for some reason at the same time.

That's really what we saw this night in Etosha park.
I took it with the flash, but I was to far and the flash didn't work correctly.
At home, I just increased the brightness/contrast to retrieve the original light.
Glad you like it :-)

What a beautiful picture Pierre. Elephants are so magestic - although he looks so peaceful standing there in the dark.

Hello Pierre....Wonderful picture....Wild animals are very unpredictable. That's one aspect of photography that makes it so exciting because you never know what you are going to get....Well done...All the best...Mick.
