I have got to nominate this one as my choice for the Post Blue in Group Portrait.
I almost choked when I saw it.....talk about the ORIGINAL group portrait!!!! Japanese Tourists!!!!!
I just about died laughing when this popped up!
Christian, you're insightful as Hell, and have a wicked sense of humor!

I was about to post that as my personal blue as well. By a long shot. But it didn't make me laugh - I totally love that shot. And though I didn't mention it in my comment, I think it's also (in addition to being perfect for the challenge) because of the group itself - I'm one of them. I'm at that age. I just lack the lady friends to go seeing the world with. Thank you, Christian! |

Thank you SO MUCH for 'getting' this image.
I was floored that it did so poorly - and I'm not taking credit for how cool this image is - it's mother nature that was let down by the voters - GRIN!
How cool are these Baboons - they truly 'search' and destroy fleas, ticks and other bits and pieces from each other most of the day.
It's SO wonderful to watch and on this particular day we had this one lounging back and truly enjoying the experience.
I am really pleased that the moment was captured.
I have an image currently in voting that is doing VERY well and yet if you asked me to choose between the two I'd have chosen this one any day - SMILE!
So.... THANK YOU for giving Mother Natures Searching to the ribbon table - GRIN!

hummm, I don't know anything about these photos - aren't mine.
But - photos don't have to have beauty, right? just have to be very very good, interesting, memorable? |

I really liked this shot from the fauna, I'm not sure why exactly, maybe its because of the definition, and sharpness in the elephant's wrinkles, 13th place seems a bit low to me.

Well I had to go into the 5s this time just to get it. That stung so maybe I'll shoot some fluffy 6.8 looking image next time. :P
