This photo was moved to the theme : The most mediocre photos on TE, due to the lack of decent acceptance ( with the ratio of: number of visits against the points accumulated within 3-4 days after posting) by the viewers on TE.
(enter at your own risk)
Also: To create the proper balance to this display of ugliness - a theme STUNNERS was created to accommodate some outstanding works posted by the most accomplished members of TE.

Ja tu tej paszczy slonia nie widze, przyznam sie, ale POV jest zakrecony i takie spojrzenie na architekture mi bardzo odpowiada, bo uderza, mocno.

Where are thou brothers and sisters ?
A poignantly beautiful one George. This elephant looks alive, and in prison. That's the first thought that comes to me. The tight compo, the emphasis on his eyes, the strong contrast have something heartbreaking to me. To reach for the sky...People or not, this is superb stuff, pulsating with life.

I've looked at this photo more than once. And I still can't figure out why I love it so much. Because I love it so much! And when you can't explain why you love a photo in TE or any photos sites where you are supposed to say intelligent things about photos, well... you should probably just shut your mouth (or keep your fingers out of the keyboard!).
Well... the point of view IS impressive. The elephant, IS a big beast, isn't it? Nevertheless, he is dwarfed by the towers, the big buildings of your city. And guess who IS dwarfed by the buildings AND by the elephant? Yep! The photographer! After all THEY are towering over you. And guess who is dwarfed by the photographer AND the elephant AND the towers (AND the sky)? Yep. Me. Sitting here, in front of that beauty...
Wonder though... Maybe it's my screen, not too sure if the elephant is not a notch too dark. People might not guess what is that dark 'thing' on the left?
Dwarfed me
