A great shot! Unfortunately, I think you've focused on the bridge of his/her nose rather than the eyes, and the dof is really shallow. Lighting is a bit too harsh, the glare on the eyes really detracts. Great composition though. 7

I like the warm brown of the sea lion against the cool blue of the rocks. The position really says "soaking in the rays" Wish the tail was sharper

this is a beautiful picture, but it does not convey to me a feeling of hot or cold or anything in between, i really like the way the colors are displayed and will give a high score anyway,

Aren't these creatures from the Arctic Circle? That's why this doesn't convey warmth to me. It just makes me confused! I wish you'd captured his/ her face, as it is, the eye isn't sure what to focus on. I find it settles on the wrinkles, which I don't think should be the focal point. The patterns of colours in the background look haphazard, and don't add to the composition. The shadow looks a little harsh as a result of shooting in the midday sun. 5

better tell us what's 'imperfect' on this beauty. Looks like a normal human being to me.

interesting how the curve at the top and bottom of the photo is almost the same. Some better lighting would have helped though, or at least a more crisp focus.

as i said of the other shots in the challenge like this: the composition is quite obvious (kind of like saying "here's my boob" in a documentary fashion). using alittle more negative space onthe right would ease the composition a bit...it almost leads you off the page, rather than into the photo.
don't love the red hue, and I can't tell if that's lighting of post-shot. either way it's takes away some of the necessary detail for me.
