Great photograph of this hippo with wonderful eye contact with you and all the details on him and the water.
Natural colors and good placement within the frame.
He is not the best looking animal but you made work for the contest perfectly. Good luck!

You have pictured so well this giant, and I especially like the close and personal approach, and how well you have captured the eyes. I also like the way the light is falling on the Hippo, and how well the textures of the skin are brought at.
The photo is sharp and it is clear and well defined details to be seen in every part of the animal, and the exposure is perfect.
I also like the tight cropping and the placement of the Hippo within the frame. I think this a great looking and well taken photo with a very good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

Your photo is impressive. The animal looks strong and dangerous. Your photo is excellent focused and exposed and has good depth. I appreciate the realism of light and color and the refinement of textures and details. The reflections are interesting. The photo is well composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

A nice photo of a hippo in the water. Very sharp focus. I like how you have placed the hippo just off center of the photo. The lighting is very good. This is a very nice photo.

You certainly captured a real close up of this hippo. So alive in the water with its nice swirls and rather nice colors in pale blues and greens. The background expresses its habitat well also.

Cool!
These are truly interesting ( and dangerously ferocious! ) animals and I'm enjoying your well-presented portrait photograph of this 'handsome specimen' very much!
