Ray of Hope by Snopaw

I knew there would have to be a flower coming sooner or later. I must say that you can elevate the segment of nature with some creative techniques that make it rise above the mundane. Fantastic manipulation of lighting.
I have to award a 6 on it although a six for a flower photo galls me to my toenails ...
Which says something about your skill levels ...

Baby Croc by thehobbit

I was in Tampa on book tour and my daughter and i went over to a nearby pond where a guy was flyfishing for bass. He cautioned us not to get too close to the alligator. We thought he was kidding until he pointed it out. What we saw to our shock was just what is in your pix. A lump with an eye in it. I liked this and the lighting arrangement, Really makes it pop to life. Well done.

Cracker Jack by Jean A Cormier

Cracker Jacks. Oh you bring back memories. Most of all you captured a masked bandit doing just what they would do. Snooping! And yes, Like I used to he's after the surprise that they put in each box. The work reeks of reality and character. Very well done.

The Male Pig Frog by Sange

Great capture. I love swilling around in swamps and have a few of these in my own portfolio so I can appreciate the effort. Crisp and detailed. Plenty of DOF.

Kakabeka Falls by randrphotos

I like the shot but not as well as your other one posted. In this case the foliage in the foreground robs from the effect by almost attempting to steal the show.
YOu should have taken out an axe and removed some of it. (just kidding - imagine the outrage!)
Still an interesting capture.

Kakabeka Falls #2 by randrphotos

Ahhh. Kekabeka. One of my favorite spots on my way from Saskatchewan to work in Toronto. Too ^$%#@& bad the Ontario govt. is so poor they have to charge $2.00 to park.
Still some of the best eagle video i ever shot was over the chasm below.
I've seen your angle for this and it shows a good eye. Use of he bush in the foreground renders it 3D and shows a skill. 5 thumbs up for this one.

Otter close up by Tellust

What a beautiful crisp capture of such an interesting subject. Otters have real personalities and this one shows it. Curious, inquisitive and playful always.
They seemed to have been designed with perfection and enjoyment for their environment.

4 stars for the story and teh rest for the art, which is equally well done. I liked the aura about the sun god.

Water Bear by bellamahri

Hey someone who actually knows what a waterbear is! Great.
I loved the face you put on this.
Good thing they're small. Dinosaur sized ones might be a tad hard to deal with.
Good lines in this. And shading.
