i agree, and voted for B. i like the puffer, just look at that face and those cool blue polka-dota!

That was a tough choice. I was going to enter a pic of my new anenome and my maroon clown next month but i might have to wait since it looks like the clown/anenome combo might to take it this month.

ya but c, just looks so digitally enhanced. so i guess if by technical quality you mean you like that enhanced look that's cool. i think b has a nice natural look to it.

okay. IF the photos were all clear, I'd say A. But it's too fuzzy. B's great, but too fuzzy. C wins me over, it's a good shot.

Since the competition is over now I want to comment on this. I tossed close to 100 pics of this shot to get one that clear. That shot is 100% un-enhanced. There was no editing at all after the shot. I would not enter a picture that had to be tampered with to look good, it defeats the purpose of the contest. I doubt you meant any offense by your comments, and none were taken however for the record it is not a processed pic.
