Warm embrace among the ice - Classical Family Portrait

After few trips to Alaska finally I was able to make a lots of good full

frame pictures of one of the funniest animals on the Earth - Sea Otters!!

maybe a little more cropping good shot anyway

Great capture! ...I am also for cropping...

Regards, Line

One of my favorites. You could crop it, but I like the area around them. For me, it gives the image depth.  

Super !

What a wonderful pose.  It's almost like a wedding album photograph "The Bride & Groom"  There is a touch of humour in their stoic expressions that is most appealing.

No wonder you kept returning to Alaska to capture them! 

 

Sincere Compliments!

Fantastic! Well worth a 7.

Best regards,

I simply love this shot of the two otters. If I might make a suggestion about composition. The two otters are right in the dead center of the frame and a little small overall. It would help composition a good bit to crop in a little tighter on them and move the one on the right to a vertical third. This gives a more "intimate" portrait of these two without losing a sense of "place"

 

Thank you Milton, Richard, Line, Margaret, Aivar, Alf, Alain, Scott!!! Thank you for advises. I agree about cropping and composition. I just wanted to keep some more ice in the frame because the picture was taken in july :) Thank you once again...!! Sincerely, Roman

They are sooo cute !

All this cropping,you would still have burn out in the white area.Clone back the detail in the white area,The composition is fine,GREAT you have broke the rules( central position) Great Shot Regards Ron
