Post your outtakes from the Animals (No Birds, No Bugs) ARCHIVAL challenge here.

I was too busy to have time to properly trawl through my archives for this challenge but did narrow my quick pick down to my entry and this one:



I decided to try something different but perhaps wasn't the best choice.

My entry:

I liked your entry very much and gave a 9
Their facial expressions, the extraordinary eyes and the title on top was a refreshing change to sheeps. Actually I can't believe that your entry didn't end up TT.I doubt the outtake would have done better -the lamb in the center can only be seen from behind, that's a downvote

Thanks Barbara for the super feedback. I am pleased you feel I made the right choice.

I'd have loved to enter this one but the focus wasn't right:


I liked this but thought the background had too many distractions:

That's probably the one I should have entered. I'm not usually a fan of selective saturation but I wanted to show that she was sleeping with her tongue out and I didn't think that was clear in black and white.

I obviously chose wrong. Thankfully some people were generous with their votes.


Now I'm disappointed it didn't get last place. So close.

Should have went with one of these.

Entry:
Knew this was a risky entry, as it wasn't what people expect to see. Performance was worse than I anticipated. I know I could have found something much more acceptable had I looked deeper in my archives.

I flipped the coin

Alternate:

These were actually taken on the same day, while on a GTG with Bear_Music in the Monterey/Carmel area; the second was never a challenge entry but it has been posted here for a long time.

Me too.
I understand your intention to leave the tongue red, but somehow it didn't add to the picture.
Colourkey used to be a big deal several years ago (I've done it myself) but seems to be totally oldfashioned nowadays. It's a pity, because sometimes it really gives the extra something.

The chameleon would have been MUCH better. I couldn't even find the animal in your entry at first sight
How come you picked the bat with such a great alternative?

to Yo Spiff

the structures on your entry are great. I liked it. Maybe there were some doubts if this really are animals?
I also like the firefish and the seal- but the fish lacks some sharpness unfortunately.

to Mariuca

the coin did it well.
Chocolate and the side glance are really nice.
The barrier in front of the goat is quite distracting - evenwhen your title made that a tille more tolerable

to GeneralE

hmmm, hard to say - both images have some quailty issues. The motif mother and child is maybe more heart-warming?

to Cuttooth

yes, you picked the right one. More balance of lighting and therefore more clearly visible features in the Impalas face. Plus the exotic look.

You see I had nothing to do tonight... let's move on to the Voting section...

I guess it's because of the work involved in finding the bats.
Those little guys aren't easy to find on your own.

I love it when Barbara has extra time!

Thanks, Barbara!

Thanks -- I was hesitant to enter that one because it had been seen here before. But you did remind me of some possible animal pictures from longer ago I didn't look at (didn't have notes where to look).
