Elephant Composition

• 2015

The idea for this photo composition came to me after seeing a bold and powerful image of ivory poachers posing for a photo. After seeing this, came the spur of inspiration that led me to create this piece on the spot. From start to end, it took about 8 hours before I was able to come up with something I thought did the original image justice.

In this composition, there is an image of ivory poachers superimposed upon an image of an African elephant staring directly towards you.
