Very creative. Love the shot and story. I hope you don't get too backed up...not going to the bathroom.
Oh, a lil' later it was gone…Very creative. Love the shot and story. I hope you don't get too backed up...not going to the bathroom.
Children must frequent that bathroom too I should have called it Moby Brick
15, oh so creative in the rain, and 16 is back to familiar alien form, like them both and also the crop and closeness on the day 16 image.
You are on fire, dude. I'm guessing that your brother-in-law is still in the fire brigade and is keeping a close eye on proceedings.
Great series!
Great series!
Back to familiar... hehe
Indeed, Luca helped by not destroying faster than I can build
Unfortunately, no, your at risk now
After moving to Hochfelden, he retired from the fire brigade at yours...
Thanks for the ongoing compliments on the series.
Very good portait, Roland. Like the handling of focus, with the eye and trunk leading and the remainder fading off (especially the ears, which could be distracting if given equal focus). I assume this is metallic?
Thank you for the remarks on focus. Indeed, quite a bit of thinking went in that, and also framing. I got several shots, of the whole elephant standing on an earth globe, and of details, at varying apertures. Decided for f/4 of this unusual elephant crop, without the tusks.
It must be some sort of metallic alloy, I guess. Here you can see it completely:

Nicely shot. Interesting perspective on the subject.
I LOVE Moby Prick. It's just way too cool, and scary to boot! Moreso when you realize what it is (in our reality) and that you had to make it! A wonderful addition.
The elephant mech is almost just a thing from our normal world, but that's just what they want us to believe, I'm sure. Well shot as Harry and Paul described.

Great perspective and directional light!
What a cool elephunk! Well framed and cleverly presented. He/she certainly looks quite forbidding.
thx
thx
I liked this perspective and framing the most, out of a variety of shots taken.
Exactly my thoughts: the most intense 'look' like that
Yes I invested quite some time in building a prototype, testing how it fit, improving... Helped that I'm experienced and I consider myself good at Duplo
And as said to David: I chose the elephant to be a worthy submission because of exactly that look. From this angle, it is just about... normal. But only just. You can see behind the facade, look at its real, alien nature.
I like this over the ones in the bucket. The DoF helps focus attention. Well done.
