Great! Esp. close up in 3, and 4! CHOSSID · 2012-05-10: 02:44

It looks like the ellie in No 4 has been white washed... and I love the eyelashes in No 3... they are wonderful creatures, for sure! Annbramwell · 2012-05-10: 02:52

now u tell it i have a pyjama full of pink elephants,, never knew how they got there either but I love it :)) The king of Spain went some weeks ago to hunt an elephant there , he stepped on something, fell and broke his hip, hope that he learnt that hunting elephants brings bad luck, now the whole Spain is against him lol,,we are having a terrible crisis and our king (well not mine, he doesnt represent me really) spends publc money going hunting pfff,,what a world . I wish i could transform in elephants certain people,,,nothing bad, I would only shoot at them with my camera :) Well all that speech I gave was just cos I intended to say that i am enjoyinig the posts of your trip a lot, but saw the elephants and lost my track lol,,sorry Love the first one!!!

I really like #1 - the washed out landscape surrounding the heffalumps really highlights them. davids · 2012-05-10: 13:33
