Bummer on the disqualification on your very first challenge. Looks like it had to do with a misunderstanding of challenge shooting time frames. Please don't let this setback keep you from trying again! Your photo communicates a lot of potential to be a contender in our little community here, and I hope to see more from you.

Great job capturing the personality of this subject. I love the context and knowing the zoo has you in their pocket as a volunteer. :-)

Really expected this one to land in the top five. It was among my favorites this challenge. Interesting background that creates genuine context for the foreground while still clearly having the subject separated.

From one of your 10s: Any photo that can score an outlier 1 and still place this high in the challenge is clearly a true work of art. The worst art (arguably) is that which elicits neither ecstasy nor revulsion but just stays safely in the middle of the road, right? :-)

A top pick for me. This is artistically striking in a way that still registers as photorealistic. I'm super impressed.

The title is a clever. :-) Is that a marble, I wonder? If so, this is a very well-constructed set-up for this challenge. One of my top picks.

A beautiful realization, with post-processing that enhances the artistic impact. Well done!
