A total of 85 'wild and free' animal images were submittted by 14 photographers, and the quality and standard was sky high. I have tried to get a range of species, photography styles and ummed and ahhed and changed my mind so many times. I am so sorry not to shortlist from all the photographers, but have trimmed it down to 8.
Please vote for the image that you think best meets the challenge to make an image of a 'Wild and Free' non-domestic animal outdoors. I have given a brief explanantion why I've selected each image, you need not be swayed by this, but I hope it may go some way to support my subjectivism.
