Just added this as a favorite as I realized I kept going back to look at it again, and again. (That's sort of the definition of a favorite, isn't it?) Great capture!!
Very nice image. If you ever upload a printable version of this PM me. I want one. (I'm Penguin fan and this will look excellent in my bar, with the other Penns collectables)
I hope this one does well, being a Penguins fan (well, not the animal but the hockey team) this one is great = ) Technically and artistically well done.
A nicely detailed image with nice detail in the water on his body but lacks connection which, IMO, is down to the lack of detail in his eye. I think a catchlight in the eye would bring enormous improvement to this image.
wow, the detail in this image is amazing. And great soft natural colors. A brighter eye would be even more appealing. The background desaturation works very well here, looks very natural.
Wonderfully sharp image..the water drops on the penguins head really add interest.. a little reflected light to brighten up the side of it`s head and bring the eye into view would have made this perfect.
Good work
Great textures and color. Nice simple composition with a good non-distractive background. Seems nicely sharp too. Only nitpick would be to have his eye a little brighter/clearer.
very sharp and nicely detailed. I wish I could see the eye more clearly, but I believe it is about the same color as the body...great colors and I love the gleaming wetness....the background is perfect too...
could use a little more light on the face, maybe a tweak with shadow/highlight would fix that. but the detail in the pic is great, love the composition, love the bokeh. GREAT shot!
