I think this image has won just because of the difference between the drinking giraffe and the non-drinking giraffe. Simple, but great shot. No space for the final giraffe to get a drink. He will just have to wait his turn.

I loved this shot, with a bear being so active. The climbing is really quite incredible, and this bear definitely stands out from the crowd (if there were a crowd of bears). With the tree being so thin, it allows the bear to be flexible. Great shot.

**This contest is open to photographers ranked between 251 and 1000 in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** Some blend in with the crowd, others stand out from it, whether by intention or not. Maybe you've photographed punks with mohicans, a black sheep (literally or metaphorically) in a flock of white, or a tall building dropped in a low-rise neighbourhood. How you interpet the contest theme is over to you...

The Masai jumping tribe are always a favourite, and this shot is no different. It answers the brief really well as photographing a single person as they jump, pushes that individual to the skies. So I think this shot is one of the better ones to use for this comp. A nice balance of settings too.
