These are Tattersal's sifakas, taken in Madagascar. I have my own opinion, but I'd like y'alls before I fire off two of them for an article. Which are your favorite two, and why?

    To me the Refinery is for critique, not favorite picking. The Wildlife forum would be an excellent place for your thread.

    Taking time to cite the rules and not even comment on the pics is rude. IMO. The poster is new.

    PMing the moderator would make more sense to me.

    Anyway...I like the first one best, although I would get rid of the reflections next to each eye and on the nose and add some fill-light.:D

    #3 is my pick. It shows the sifaka in its entirety and since it is looking at something, conveys that it is behaving "normally" without awareness of it being observed or photographed.

    I like #1 next. The eyes always draw the viewer in and they begin to wonder what thoughts are going on.

    #1 and #3 for me...

    #1 is a cute close up of a cute face.

    #2 is a nice full body shot that shows off it's tale and a bit of the environment as well.

    Well Done!
