African Bush Elephant(s) edit

Original - version 1: A male African Bush Elephant

version 2: a herd of 4 elephants

version 3: a group of two elephants

There seems to be a consensus that Etosha elefant.jpg‎ is not a particularily useful image for enwiki even when I think this ist aesthetically ohe of the best elephant pictures here. The current elephant pictures 1 and 2 are unsharp or poorly framed. So my question to you is if you'd prefer to have one of these pictures as lead images and if yes which one. Could you imagine one of these as FP? Thanks for sharing your thoughts. --Ikiwaner (talk) 17:38, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Much better than the other photos as far as sharpness and angle showing the whole elephant, but it's disappointing than it seems it was taken on one of the only days it was looking like rain. Still it could possibly pass for its EV and it's not your fault for the overcast. V1 - Um... Has he been mating recently? I prefer the full pack in V2, I think I've heard that male elephants only stay with the herd when they have babies, though V1 shows the whole animal best. --I'ḏ ♥One 20:48, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your review. Concerning weather: There are 94 rain days in Serengeti. It's not something unusual. Other opinions? --Ikiwaner (talk) 15:11, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Huh. Sorry, I guess I must be brainwashed by NatGeo, they always show the Serengeti looking like a near-desert. Congrats though, it looks like it's gonna pass on Commons. --I'ḏ ♥One 06:52, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
