This photo is absolutely adorable. I'm giving this a 9 for sure. I really like the fact that it's in its apparent habitat and pretty close. It is an exceptionally well taken photo too. I'm not totally sold on the framing. He might be a little better off being a little more toward the right, but regardless its one hell of a shot.

I never realized how furry they were - you did a fantastic job framing the shot and capturing the texture

Okay, I'm totally biased now because for once, this is a picture of something other than a duck or a swan but THAT is one awesome picture. Where is this? If this is at the zoo you totally fooled me.... Great job! --10 p.s. you didn't need that ugly border.

far too cute, I even like the highlights along his back from the sun..makes it seem like a very warm nap.

beautiful clarity and sharpness and shallow depth of field... this shot definitely gets a 10. for what it's worth, i don't like this border. it seems to upset the flow of the image by the gradient colors in it... - setzler

Man, this must be the cutest animal in the world. They are so cool, great attitude to the world, life and the rest.
Nice setting, ultimate laziness. When I die I want to return as a Koala. :)

It's almost cheating, having stuff like this lying around that you can shoot! V nice work; tones, textures, composition - the whole lot.

Oh this is so cute! Amazing they can sleep like that and not fall out of the tree. Great composition and detail, good job!

[Comment only] Oh wow, the texture depicted in this photo makes it look so real. I feel as if I can reach into the image and stroke the soft cuddly looking koala. And gosh isn't it just so darn cute?
