 crocodiles lazing around in afternoon sun
This was taken in a zoo.

Hurdle was, I was not able to decide which of those to make as a subject.
Aperture limitation ( max f/8 available with me) made it further difficult to capture details.

Ideally I would have liked to go closer to ground, make one subject and others bit blur, but this was not possible in zoo....

How do we make good composition in such conditions

Nice image but the border isn't really helping showcase the image.

In my opinion taking the colors down some would have set this over the edge. Nice shot though, 6

I think they need a boombox, or a Wii, or something. Perhaps a nice juicy mammal tossed into the compound. Yep, that would liven things up for sure.

This is surreal. Would be better without the bevelled border IMHO
