The sense of wonder, thrill and delight is so palpably captured in her silhouetted body language that you "share the joy" along with her. What a wonderful capture, Nikki! #11511243

Perfectly composed, Nikki, with so many interesting shapes and subtle detail, and a wonderful mood of wonder and fascination. I love the way the little girl is bending to get a better perspective, as well as the position of the penguin's head above the water. And that bit of color at his neck reiterates the focal point. Truly outstanding. #11559513
