Compare The Meerkat Watchers

Year 2 Day 139
A big family day out to Longleat and about 500 pictures taken, mostly of animals which is most unlike me. I still end up going for the people ones first. That's a meerkat they're all gawking at. The title may only make sense to UK 365ers as it's a play on the awful car insurance website comparison ad shown over here ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0mXUC0cUPg).

I think I like the guy with shades expression best although the two teens are running him pretty close...

Benefits from large view!

If the meercat had a camera, he'd be taking pictures too! Great perspective!

[Laura Demko]

[Shanne]

love the faces too, isn't it so much easier to focus on street shots when everyone has cameras out!

[andy c]

haha this is great... dreadful adverts, but prefer them to the Go Compare ones...

[Richard Tyson]

@andycoleborn haha jack loves go compare, he's always singing the song. Mind you he prefers the earlier ones

[Tanya]

Awesome composition, the expressions are priceless and the position of the meerkat right in front of the wee girl is brilliant.

[Constance Brinkley]

I love this shot. The teen is my favorite! Nice capture.

[Laura]

I love the color tones here....what picture style do you shoot with? or is that in processing? I think I need to play with mine and figure out a more muted color setting...

[paula goff]

this is great! i like the little girl who is nearly eye to eye with him:)

[Sherrill]

great photo...love that it's taken from a totally different perspective, reminds me of the Wasgij puzzles :)

[Richard Tyson]

@arrayofblues hi. i've adjusted this in picnik, used a bit of "gritty" to take the glare off and then went to Curves and selected "polaroid" to desaturate a little. In both cases I backed the slider off from it's original position to about 70% fade. Hope that's useful to you!

[Laura]

@rich57 haha well...weird. I mainly use both of those in picnik. Good job! Thanks!!
