This is a fantastic photo, the colors, movement of the ice flow has really been captured in an unexpected shot. One doesn't even feel cold, while viewing. The composition is outstanding. This has my vote.

So difficult to make a decision - but I have a soft spot for penguins, which I saw in the wild in New Zealand. I love the flippers/arms spread out for balance - almost human. You have my vote because you made me smile.

That gets my vote!

Spectacular image. As good as it gets. Isobel's nature photography consistently surpasses one's highest expectations. I have traveled with her on photo expeditions and watched her at work. While nothing comes easily (other than luck), Isobel works for what she gets--and what she gets says everything about the quality of her work. This is a winner! Bravo!

nice nice!!!!

Beautiful, amazing photo!

really captures the pristine, isolated atmosphere
