Jonathan Cream of the Crop  More info | Aug 31, 2013 19:20 | #1 I just did a re edit of a shot I took last year. I would appreciate opinions on whether the crop and PP work better on the 2nd image. Thanks!

OhLook insufferably pedantic.

The color is corrected there. A purple elephant would be a novelty. Composition is improved, too. PRONOUN ADVISORY: OhLook is a she. | A FEW CORRECT SPELLINGS: lens, aperture, amateur, hobbyist, per se, raccoon, whoa, more so (2 wds.), shoo-in | Comments welcome

However, I would remove the sun coming through the branches as it was extremely distracting to me. If the elephant had been in the sun also, I would have left it. But since it is in the shade you want the elephant to be the focal point, not the bright spot in the upper right. --
