Foto Flip Friday – January Theme: “ANIMALS” (Week 5)

Welcome to a brand new edition of Foto Flip Friday – a selected showcase of photos dredged up from my bountiful photo archives and whittled into pretty little “flip/flop” postcards each Friday.  And to add to the fun, each month I’ll challenge myself to unearth a series of images that meet a monthly theme.

For this, the final week of flip-floppin’ ANIMALS, we have a trio of spectacular critters I’ve been lucky enough to see in my travels.

(Do mouseover to see a short message on the back of each postcard.
Simply mouseover the image and watch the *magic!)

First we have but a hint of the HUMONGOUS size of the wondrous creatures that gathered for the annual Elephant Festival in Laos in 2013:

* Well o.k. for those viewing in IE, not so much a magical “flip” as a fading change. If you want to see the flip/flop, try viewing in Chrome or Firefox.
 

And here we have a spectacular close-up into the eyes of a most amazing creature:

And finally, as promised – one of the many critters I marveled at this month in the Galapagos Islands):

O.k. now, that’s an “ANIMALS” wrap!

Tune in next Friday to see what new Foto Flip theme I’ve chosen for February.

Well, I tried it again and it works fine. I use Chrome (on a Chromebook). Must have been a temporary bug!

Great photos!

Dyanne, the photos aren’t flipping! (at least not on my computer)
