The look of bliss on the baby hippo's face really made this shot for me. They were just relaxing on what ended up being a very warm day at the San Diego Zoo in California. If you look under the chin of the mama hippo is the reflection of a child that was just enchanted by the hippos. It was really cute, but a tad distracting from the overall shot. Still I didn't want to edit him out.
I kind of like the ethereal child.
ReplyDeleteThe shot was done through the glass I think. Well-done Heather. I tried years ago in the Boston aquarium and the photos were not good.
ReplyDeleteYes, this was taken through the glass. That is what gave off the reflection of the child.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about liking the child in it. He has really grown on me too, that's why I couldn't edit him out.
