I had a multitude of images to choose from for this challenge but choose something fairly recent that I felt was a strong contender. Judging by the results I didn't choose well. I won't post loads of contenders but here was one from the same day that I also seriously considered.

Gosh that is a VERY hard choice - I love the up close softness of your outtake but I love the composition of your entry except the tail feathers on the left side of the frame :-( Darn parents always getting in the way! LOL |

| Thank you Erin for the feedback. I could easily have cloned out the mothers tail feathers but I had thought that added more to the story as the little ones were following their mother. But perhaps it just looks sloppy. Anyway I appreciate the feedback - the problem with archival challenges is choosing from so many contenders. |

Thank you Roz for the feedback. That is the wonderful thing about art - the world would be rather dull if we all thought the same. I will feed back on your outtakes tomorrow when O am on the computer and can do them justice. My eyesight combined with a small phone screen isn̢۪t a good combo. |

I quite agree. I have one with the back leg of a female elephant plus the baby - similar "following" idea - and some have suggested cropping out the adult but I resist. |

Isn̢۪t that so true? What one person likes, someone else thinks should be changed. Just goes to show you, can̢۪t please them all, it would be a very boring place indeed. |

I'm sure you were.
I love the first one. The second one is nice too, but it really needs to be larger to do it justice. |

You would bag more blue ribbons if you find the originals. Wonderful photos!

I am so fortunate to have taken photos for a local dog breeder but I didn̢۪t keep any of the raws - I had so many cute ones! I took a photo of all the puppies at 6 weeks in the same order and it was so cute, but I had to make a composition of it taking just a couple at a time and putting them all together in photoshop as they were WAY too squirmy.
Side note for anyone taking puppy litter photos: when they are that little if you put a heating pad under them (super low, test it first for how warm it is and make sure you have plastic between the pad and multiple blankets-puppy accidents). |
