Exellent colors and perfect focus. Looks like you might have some hot pixels there on the feathers but it could just be the bird.

Cute puppy. Not sure I like the post-processing though. Too much detail of his fur seems to be lost. Nice composition though.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Nice portrait of a primate! I like the detail in the fur and the light in the eyes. The expression on its face conveys the concept of something just heard. The background adds context without being distracting. Under this editing rule-set it would have been possible to "clean up" the dirt hanging from the Siamang's bottom...I understand that's how it was but I think one can break away from photojournalism from time to time.

The largest factor in the score must be the tenuous connection to the challenge. Other than the title there's nothing, in my opinion, that connects this to Dr. Seuss. Horton is an elephant, the Who are little balls of fluff...that another animal in the jungle would hear the Who, too? Well, maybe.

Overall, a fine image that squeezed its way into a challenge. :)

Keep shooting what you love!

He looks like a Horton.
