| Shag carpet. You don't so much see this as feel it, physically, though there's no lack of emotion either. Great stuff. |

| I won't pretend to understand the title. Love the scene though. And I see Sasquatch. |

| This is like staring at moving clouds. Each viewer will come up with a different story. |

| I see your elephant! Not easy to spot but once you do your eye is drawn to him. Lovely tribute. |

| I love the illusion of the elephant in the grass. Is it an illusion? Use your imagination. Nice. |

| Been a while since I listened to Kenny Rogers song...thank you for that throw back in time. This image would make a lovely engraving...two dimensional yet deep in spirit. |

| A lovely, delicate, evocative image. It's a palimpsest from an ancient Sanskrit manuscript. I can see the elephant and then hints of other animals in the bush. A running person on the left, a pint of Ben & Jerry's in the center, but I guess part of the point is to unshackle the imagination. The foliage looks like it's been pressed between panes of glass. I can almost hear a breathy flute in the background. Beautiful and rewarding. The title is great. |

| Awwww, you've been peeking at something of mine, and you have thoroughly thrashed me at my own game. That's nearly an elephant ... Is it? It feels like an elephant, although the uncertainty about that question is marvellous to me. It is, it isn't, it is, it must be; the real answer doesn't matter. This is a beautiful, mystical photograph, perfectly poised on the knife edge between the spiritual and the corporeal. Had I produced this photograph, I'd have been thrilled and alas, surprised, and very happy. That a fellow photographer created it in this challenge makes me happier still. It's a beautiful thing. Thank you. |

| I nearly didn't spot that elephant...a play on words with one of Paul's past images. A very clever image. Already voted. |

Extraordinary image with a perfect title. Great foreground, brilliantly chosen texture and a shadowy betrunked blur that is a marvel to behold.
Like a screen print as photo - the longer I look, the more I am powerless to resist its charm.
Bumping to a 10 - just for making me feel sentimental. |

| I like the texture and scene. I don't like the monster like figure that distracts. |

| A shot I could easily see coming from Paul. The backstory of the song is heart-wrenching and meaningful, especially for us older DPCers. Nice presentation and allusion with the shadow. My top choice in the challenge. |
