The crab takes it.

I saw your other posts too, and I love the last blue footed booby.

Thanks, yeah I like the booby too (below), but thought it looked a little posed? Hard to believe I was bouncing along in a zodiac in rough seas when I shot this! It is really hard to narrow down, I took 8500 shots! Good problem to have though!

My Wife and I love #3. The emotion and relaxation is clearly evident.
Good luck in the competition and let us know which one you end up choosing.

2 and 4 grab me. Love the "look" on the face in #2 and the colors in #4 are fantastic.
