Taken at the Columbus Zoo (go figure). I know its just a wee bit of foot of the polar bear - but I thought it added humor. What I really enjoyed in the image was all of the faces. I dont shoot photojournalism type shots. My eye is not geared towards seeing those images through the lens. But I was pleased this came out as it did. Especially considering the ruleset. Funny - of the three images I have up for vote this is my least favorite and it is scoring the highest. Who would have guessed.

I really like the picture, but like you cant see no polar bear is more about the tourists watching. Their face expressions are awesome! I will crop the black line at the left. Nice colors!
Really well shot and edited. There are some nagging distractions here, like the finger in the foreground and the paw and sliver of black at the top. But nice job focusing on the people.
If that's the headline, I would have wanted to see a bit more of the polar bear :) Otherwise, an excellent shot, and a good representation for the challenge, though!
