A cute setup but that purple background is not adding anything to the photo. Seems a bit washed out as well.

I'm rating it higher, even though its a staged image, just because it really funny - laugh out loud funny.

Thanks very much everyone for all the comments; much appreciated, some very lovely ones which gave me far more joy than my final score...

I had hoped this shot would do better than it did but the 5.7/5.8 seemed to stick so I guessed it wouldn't be top 10 ! Would like to know why so many 3's & 4's... perhaps you all thought it was a snap through an aquarium glass or something. Well, as these chaps were 5 metres across, it would have been one hell of an aquarium ! And to the commenter who said the sand was a little featureless, well I'm sorry, but when you've sat on the sea bed for best part of an hour waiting for these guys to appear, there's not an awful lot you can do about that...

Difficult with so many images to judge, but still disappointing to see some rather more 'ordinary' pics rated higher. Ah well, such is DPC !

This shot should not have scored so LOW!! I feel as if this shot was VERY good. You got robbed of a good shot.
