My apologies to everyone for my wrong interpretation of challenge descriptions. I thought it's just to capture the affectionate expression of animals as those in the challenge before this. Sorry!!!! Regards, Alex.

Thanks all so much for your comments and advice. There is kid running around, I avoid her in this shot :-( .

Top 5 winners all in B&W. All are amazingly capture and awesome, my big congratulations!!

Below is an entry from jjbeguin, this entry is so lovely. Well done!

He's adorable! For this challenge I do wish there was some interaction with a human here, even if it was just looking at the photographer.

Nice tones here. Perhps cropping off some of the sky at the top would be a more powerful composition.

Ooh look who has a Tokina AF 12-24mm f/4 AT-X Pro DX on a D300s :) or D90 :)
Lovely shot, smooth and peaceful. Nice sky and not HDR'd to death. I love that lens. Underrated IMO.

i like the textures in the rocks and sky and the 'smoke' water is always a cool effect

Darn shop, never trust them.. My dad still grumbles about what happened to what he thought was his best roll of scuba diving slides..
Love the composition and planes separation, the little girl pose is just lovely.
I am guessing Indonesia or Malaysia?
