This is so hard to decide! But I ended up going with larkspur, all the pics were awesome though.
 
very hard to decide between the squiral and the dog, but the dog won for me by a gnats cock.
 
Larks got mine, with a close second from Zz
 
I got put in the cute kitty bracket!

:smile: Yeah, I think all the kitty pictures should have been put in one voting block to give some of the other animals a chance.

It was a tough call between the squirrel and the cat with glowing eyes. There's something about the WAY they're glowing that's pretty striking. So, I think twisting_edge's spooky black cat gets my vote.

'Dog' is a lot easier to spell.

I'm just glad your picture of the gnat was disqualified for violating pornography laws. No one would have stood a chance against that.
 
Hummp... maybe I should have gone with yet another cute kitty pic. o:)
 
Lots of clever pics here (matthyaoouuww, larkspur), but I went with Zz for picture quality and timing. Where is that anyway (it's not San Diego), Zz ?

Are you allowed to actually say things like that among decent folk?

It's SeaWorld in Orlando. That was part of the Shamu show in the afternoon.
