    The scene is nice. It would have been better if you had used a narrower aperture.

    Vikram,
    With elephants dust bathing, it is better to try manual focusing. The lack of contrast in their huge bodies and the dust often results in the AF latching on to areas with higher contrast. There is a stick at the bottom of the frame. Moving the camera slightly up would have avoided that. The dung adds to the image. Else, I would have suggested less of space at the bottom and more at the top. Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,
    Sabyasachi

    The habitat is nice. Its good that all the elephants are together, and you could get them in one group. Else, there is a chance of some elephant getting cut from the frame. I agree about the stick, maybe you can crop to just avoid it. Maybe a slight higher contrast will be good.
