Wildlife Photographer of the Year

[karohemd]

I've finally been persuaded to take part in the Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition run by the Natural History Museum. Previously, I had shied away from paying £20 just for taking part but now I decided I have enough disposable income to take that loss.
I entered three images from my Antarctic cruise:


in the "Animal Portaits" category


in the "Animals in their environment" category and


in the "Animal Behaviour: Birds" category.

Wish me luck!

I will post again when the public gallery is online so you can vote for me. :o)

Good luck!

I like the first one best I think, with the little penguin footprints in the sand. :)

Cheers!

It's certainly my favourite. I have it as poster size print at home. :D

Yup, mine too.

I don't know much about photography, but from an artistic composition perspective really works for me.

*nods* That's why the first is in the "portrait" category.
The others are more documentary.
Thanks!

I too love this picture! I would proudly display it!

I feel a penguin pic coming on when I've been paid and my finances bounce back from purchasing his majesty downstairs! It would look lovely in our kitchen!

Yay!
