•  Oppose Not up there with current FPs in composition of technical excellence. Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:21, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
•  Support It looks like this is technically as good or better than some elephant FPs, but it's also of a type of behavior we don't appear to have an FP of (correct me if I'm wrong). -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:59, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

• We don't. But I much prefer this image of an elephant covering herself in sand whilst standing out in the sun protecting her sleeping baby. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:29, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose Composition; especially foreground. Poor lighting from behind. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:22, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

• One "oppose" should be enough. See above. ;-) --XRay 💬 13:00, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

•  Comment The light is not very good. From the shadows, it seems that the midday sun comes from in front. Probably not the best angle of view, sorry -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:35, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

•  Support Agree that the light could be better but the high sharpness on the elephant makes it FP to me Cmao20 (talk) 15:29, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

•  Comment I that dustbathing? to me it looks like water. A shame that the arch of water coming out of the trunk. And yes, the ligthing isn't good, Poco a poco (talk) 19:48, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

• It's water and sand (mud). --XRay 💬 19:55, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
