you have a picture of an elephant unless you took a picture away from an elephant (which could be dangerous)

once the picture is taken, do I have:
an elephant's picture? yes
an elephant picture? no
a picture of and elephant? yes
a picture from an elephant? only if you took a picture away from the elephant
thanks.

hope this helps (I'm not a teacher)
