Comment from soulfeeder
Funny title consistent with the image of that hippo with colossal, open mouth. I like how their colors contrast with the green foreground and the water. An image with a story to tell. Great angle and excellent lighting and exposure, showing vivid colors of the grass. Well framed and well well captured.
