That is amazing. It looks like a statute! I don't think we have those at our zoo. I wish we did. They look so interesting! What a cool photo!

I'd say this definitely is a portrait-and a good one too! The blurred snow is great, and their expressions are interesting.

Oh yes, Tim, this is most definitely the kind of portrait that works GREAT for a challenge like this. This is really awesome. You're right the snow adds such a touch of glam and interest to this, but I think just the poses and the character would have made a very cool photo on their own too.

I like the rich tones in the wooden door and the concrete. This is just a really cool photo!

Why would you take a perfectly good photo and ruin it like that?

You guys are so funny. ;) All fixed now.

And also thanks for all the faves. This has become my most faved non challenge entry. Go figure.
