The giraffe is a perfect portrait.
Hmmm ... Giraffe or Meerkat ? Umm ...Meerkat gets it.
Tough decision.... I think the tiger of the giraffe... Not sure, though
I wish anonymooses would use a name - Danny of the "Hmmm ... Giraffe or Meerkat ? Umm ...Meerkat gets it."
And Danny, why is the meerkat 'getting it'?! I think she looks completely innocent, and a wee bit sad. That of course could be because she is finding it hard to stand up and not slide away, as the photographer/editor has skewed her world. This seems a bit much when she has just had dirt thrown all over her.
And so now, what you have all been waiting for, to my critique...
This is largely a complete rabble of third rate shots and slipshod photographic editing; unfocused, sloppy compositions, poor white balance and exposure, and even an obvious and unwanted reflection of the photographer in the cheetah's eye! Which leads me to ponder why this nonentity with a camera is getting any attention at all.
So that said, as I know my fans will want to know:
I do proclaim the photographic capturing attempt of one said meerkat to be the least worst: Focused where it matters; the over exposure actually (probably unknowingly) enhancing the crux of the composition (her facial features); and the after thought of the aspect rotation of the image dragging it through the mud, to be marginally slightly more appealing than the rest of the accumulation.
So
Who put a 'So' at the end of my review?!
