awwww this is cute!

Great take on this! And to top it off, your title is spot on. The only thing I find distracting is the amount of space at the top half. I much prefer taking in your cute subject just by rolling the photo so that the top third of the photo is cropped off. 7 :)

ah yes, the penguin gang, b&w excellent, light good, great dof, comp needs work, color ok, nice flow, overall a galant effort

Great shot... I love me some penguins!

Good composition, this shot is an excellent example of the rule of thirds really making a photo work. The negaitve space is great, and I love the way the heads of the penguins lead you all the way to the one standing out from the crowd.

Haha, cute title!
01/27/2006 05:26:14 PM
Great shot. The composition, colours, lighting, bokeh all excellent.
01/26/2006 05:27:50 PM
yeah, usually it's me...LOL. Great job. Nice colors, err, non colors (since it's been pointed out to me that black and white are NOT colors). I like the sparkle coming out of the water.

I love the story implied here, and the bokeh effect works nicely, too! 9

This is a lovely animal image..... Your title is so correct, and really suits the image.....I like this.

Great capture. If I had to find anything to nit-pick about, I might point out that I find the cropping off of the penguin on the left a little unappealing, as the edge of the frame cuts right through its eye. The water in the background and the highlights in particular really make the penguins stand out.

Cute penguins, not so sure I like all the enpty space at top.
01/24/2006 09:55:47 AM
There is always one!
01/24/2006 12:41:50 AM
i like the composition but the contrast seems a bit flat.
01/22/2006 12:27:13 PM
very nice use of DOF. Composition is good, but perhaps a bit tight as the one penguin is being sliced in half. Exposure factors seem perfect.

Hehe nice capture :) The bokeh is a bit distracting, but doesnt take away from the nice humour here :)
01/20/2006 08:04:38 AM
Singled out....
01/20/2006 05:49:49 AM
Very nice. One of my favorites in this challenge.
01/18/2006 06:58:48 PM
10 from me...good luck!
