What fun expressions they have! I love the color of the background and the detail of their fur, especially the one looking at the camera.

How adorable! It's a shame the focus seems to be more on the rocks than on the animals' heads -- although the bottom right one seems to be in focus... Also, very clever idea.

I don't know, these aren't really what I think of as opposites! But the picture is adorable, and giving you the benefit of the doubt for the challenge. You might have considered cropping a bit closer to these subjects.

Good detail - I like how the third animal is staring right at me. Not sure your title captures "opposite" however. Sitting and standing are different kinds of "stationary", while crawling is a kind of "motion." So yeah, there's a couple of individual opposites working here, but the picture as a whole doesn't convey a single message.

Great zoo shot! The expressions are comical. Looks like a slight focus or motion blur problem on the middle animal's head.

interesting idea, but not sure if that qualifies as opposite

Opposites 1: sitting standing
Opposites 2: stationary, moving.
Now, that I have that off my chest this is a gorgeous picture. Even though I thought I would never like to see rust again. A 10.

Great subject, a bit aware from the theme at first time. But I´m impressed with results.

Very nice, so glad NOT to see more ice cubes on fire. Good sharp image, creative take on topic and unique subject. I like the 'crawling' one the best he looks very mischievious. 10

This shot is great but the one in the middle is blurred (well its head) though. I also would of liked it more if it was centered more. - 6

Nice composition--I like that you kept space on the left side, it provides balance to the strong subjects. The gaze of the one animal is intense--helps make this zoo picture amusing. Great detail in the fur. Nice lights in the eyes. Wish it had less of a domesticated feeling about it.

Man, you outdid me in the meercat world! I better get to the zoo. I have work to do! I love the color, the composition, the expressions. I wish the middle meercat was more in focus (in the eyes) and I wish the photo was a little brighter too. Great job though!

Great shot, but it doesn't really say opposites to me.
