 I have a feeling I will be lucky if this scores in the low 6's for a FS... but I really liked this shot and have not entered in any challenges for a while.

I spent a short weekend trip at my friends farm in Minnesota and there were plenty of little guys/girls like this one to photograph. So cute!

Thanks for all the great comments, I figured this would not be a high scorer in a FS, but I appreciate the positive feedback!

Very high on the cuteness scale! Would like to see catchlights in those little eyeballs.

Almost makes you want to keep it as a pet.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: Ha! Cute but not cutesy, quite a trick that, to take a baby animal and offer it up while tip-toeing around cliche. I like its honest straight-up-ness too - it feels unembellished despite the fairly interventional edit.

Critical stuff: The pail bottom left. I think I'd have consigned it to cloning.

Overall: A fine rendition of a pretty animal.
