love that this got a ribbon .. GO JOHANNA .. !!!!! ..
this is wonderful ... and better the more i look at it .. if i'd sat and perused it longer during voting i would have given you a higher score .. many apologies for the 7 which should have been an 8 ..
a few seconds later .. it would have made no difference .. you would have ended up with the yellow either way ..
CONGRATULATIONS .. !!! .. xx

Prometheus and the Making of Man

thankyou so much for your words about how this image came about .. very interesting .. and lets hope our world evolves into the belief that all animals deserve our respect and care .. and we change our behaviour accordingly ..
i cant bear the thought of what animals go thru to end up on our plates .. just for one .. which is why i'm a vegetarian ..

anyway . massive CONGRATULATIONS on the blue ..
and i agree with margaret if those low votes were an agenda thing .. if not then we are all entitled to our likes and dislikes .. and i gotta say your image was quite confronting .. !! .. which i like btw .. :)

Prometheus and the Making of Man

Comment:
WOW .. another very intense image ..
i had to google prometheus and the making of man .. and came away with quite a few stories .. some contradictory .. but this does represent many of the stories i read ..

of course i will be looking forward to your story .. of what you were thinking when you created this ..
often that is equal to the 'enjoyment' i get when seeing one of your images ... not only the image itself but the story and thought behind it .

btw .. i stand in awe of your skills .. not only the photography but the way you can seemlessly put disparate images together to form a unique and perfect whole .. :)

The Tortoise and The Hare
by Lydia

Comment:
i like the hare's teeth . !! ..
and how its expression perfectly shows how surprised it is ..
how could a tortoise beat me .. its just too embarrassing to consider .. how on earth can i walk with my head held up high in future ..
i'll have to go on all fours .. oh .. the indignities .. !! .. ;)

The Gnat & the Bull (Are You Still Here)
by Tiberius

Comment:
i bet there are a heap of gnats on that bull .. too small for the naked eye to see .. its a great shot ..
i love that the bull is chewing .. it makes it look like you are having a conversation .. !! ..
now i wonder what you are talking about .. you two ..
probably about how annoying gnats are .. ;)
