Love the icy colors here and slick coat of the otter. Nice work. Helen

Thanks Nancy and I agree, MFC understood the situation very well and if I would have thought of that title I would probably been using it. :)

This is such a sweet, sweet shot Magnus. Your title works very well for the image, but when I read MFC's "But I can see you... " line, I thought that would be the perfect title. It just says it all. Well shot, Magnus ;-) --Nancy

Great shot - he's so little and cute!

Thank you both,
yes the otters were really playful and it was quite hard to catch them with tele, they were running like crazy! It was shot at Skansen (a zoo) in Stockholm, Sweden. Btw, I have some more herehttp://217.215.186.235/Unsorted/index4.html if you like to see.

Magnus, otters are such playful creatures...and I like how you've captured that here. I could sit and watch them frolic for hours. I like the simple background & your placement of the "meeting" within the scene...nice sense of texture/wetness to the fur too. "But, I can see you & touch you...so why won't you play??" :) Where did you enjoy getting this shot? MFC
