Oooh that face.... So cute!!! Great focus, composition and expression! Has a nice monochromatic tone without sacrificing color. Nice job getting the lighting right so that adorable face didn't disappear into his shimmery black coat. Love it!

This is a wonderful portrait of the seal. And it's a terrific entry for the contest. They are fun to watch. I totally agree with you. I like the way you have captured this up close. The imagery is sharply focused. Exposure is adequate and framing is perfect.

Why its flipper the seal awaiting a fish toss, cause its time to eat. You have done a fine job of presenting this aquatic mammal One of the fastest in the ocean. He looks so cute. the best of luck in the contest. Ray

A very cute visual presented here of the sea lion. You've captured his essence. Composition is very well thought out. Wonderful to view. Thank you for sharing.

This is a beautiful shot of the seal, who appears to be in deep thought! :) You framed it well, and the lighting, shadows, colours, and composition worked well. Good luck!

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Yes, your full composition does suggest that thoughtful seal is wondering when the next fish will be thrown in? Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

A lovely capture of the seal. Good details and nicely composed in the frame. Good center of interest. Wonder what she is thinking now. Like the way you framed your image. Clutter free without distraction and fully filling the frame. Good story telling ability. The lighting and exposure are well handled. Well seen and captured. Thanks for sharing!
