Great contest!

WOW, this is amazing. The dogs are pin sharp and well framed. Usually part of the shadow is missing but here you've captured it all. I love the shapes created by the dogs and their shadows too. The footprints add interest to the fore and background. A wonderful capture, well done.

This is great. I love the way the dog is sat upright against the wall. The shadow has a rather odd shape which almost doesn't look like it belongs to the dog at all. You have captured it pin sharp, well composed and with beautiful colours and tones. Very well done.

This is an awesome shot. I love how you have managed to capture this high pace action image of a racing hound pin sharp and all in frame too. The colours and tones blend really well. I love the shadows shape as well. A cracking image well done.

Crikey, you have shot an impressive image here. Swallows are hard to capture but here you have done that and pin sharp. The shadow is not only beautiful and sharp, it is all in the frame too. The sandy background is great and non-distracting as well. I love how simplistic the image is too as it allows you to focus solely on the swallow's natural beauty. A brilliant image and very worthy winner, congratulations.

This is a lovey, delicate image. I love the shape of the impala's shadow and how it goes up the rock. The whole image is pin sharp and has great colours and tones. Also it is very well composed. A wonderful image, well done.

WOW, this is a lovely, natural image. I really like how the sun is positioned high in the sky with beautiful rays and starburst behind the penguin. It has enabled you to capture a lot of detail in the penguin and get the shadow in front too. The composition is spot on as well. A great capture, well done.

This is beautiful. I love the warm colours and how they blend really well together. I like the seal being in silhouette as it compliments its shadow. The image is well composed and pin sharp too. A great capture, well done.

This is a lovely simplistic image. The snow and ermine blend really well. I love how the reddish nose stands out. You have captured it pin sharp and with beautiful tones and colours. The ermine and its shadow are composed really nicely too. A wonderful and sweet capture, well done.

For this contest I am looking for your colour photos of any animal species and their shadow. No photos of humans please. The shadow does not need to be complete but there must be nothing else in the image other than the animal and its shadow. No black and white images allowed, only colour.
