The lighting was a compromise[understatement of the century!].. A huge bird whooshed past us and I couldn't get it because the fps and camera reaction time is too slow... pengu ain't human.. I dunno... how ppl will react to that.. gonna get something low. I know.

It would be more effective if it looked more like a penguin (didn't rely on the title), and if the ground looked like ice. Definitely conveys emotion, though.
Is that a stuffed penguin? If so, then the idea works for me. But the image doesn't. On my calibrated CRT monitor, there's no detail in the penguin, so it's just a plain black shape. I thought it was a hedge until I read the title.
If i hadn't read the title I would have no clue what that is or supposd to be. Not giving you DNMC votes, but because i can't see what exactly it is, I can't see the emotion either. A side profile may have worked better for this. Also you could have cropped out more of the bottom as well.
so cute. i love the idea. not so fond of the execution. not enough definition in the penguin, he looked like a big blob, i had to look at the title to figure out what was going on.hahaha, maybe i'm just slow. i do like it though, you portrayed more emotion than other entries i've seen so far.
