You used the lines of the pier to lead the eye nicely to the center of the photo. A very pleasing early evening scene...you make me wish I was there!

I like very much this image, but I think you will get a lot of DNMC, because the subject is not the center of the picture, it's more like leading lines.

Agree with Sandy, the wallabys hand on your sons fingers makes this image really something special. Congrats on top 5, Alan.

I just absolutely love this photo. There's something about the way the wallaby has his hand on Craig's fingers that seems so touching and endearing. Congratulations on your honorable mention. It certainly was one of my top picks.

Love it! It's nice and sharp, the depth of field really brings you into the main subject, and the crop is nice and tight. The composition is great as well.

Excellent photo, but the border doesn't add anything

I elected to use a rating table to decide on what value to assign during voting.
Here̢۪s the table:
1 No Animal/People Interaction
2 Slightly Appealing, but no Animal/People Interaction
3 Moderately Appealing, but on Animal/People Interaction
4 Greatly Appealing, but no Animal/People interaction
5 Not Appealing, but possessing Animal/People Interaction
6 Slightly Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
7 Moderately Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
8 Greatly Appealing and possessing Animal People Interaction
9 Better than #8, and caused an audible sigh
10 Better than #9, and would likely declare it a favorite
