it's like the three stooges. . .

Thanks guys.

jmeagher: The shot was captured within the confines of one of the Oxford University Colleges. As soon as I entered the square, I noted these three guys taking time out from an obviously busy lunch shift.

Davids: Yes, well I entitled this image "Three Wise Monkeys".

I had to use a zoom as I didn't want them to start posing or shift positions as this would make the shot look contrived. I left the image on my camera for a while but was sure that they went up in a form of step, from small to large. You can imagine how pleased I was to find this to be the case. Even the banister compliments the ascending height of each. It's another one of those shots that makes me smile. You couldn't choreograph it better.

Think I over processed the skin tones and was too lazy to change this before posting. Don't think it will get 'featured' due to this fact. Fingers crossed mind.

Superb! I've seen this before but it is so perfect for this theme :)

I like the subject of this image, it's very humorous and enjoyable and I gave it high marks in relevance, impact, and composition (although I do feel a tighter cropping would be better, but it's good as it is.) However the image has an overall 'fuzzy' feel especially present in the faces which the most important part of this image, so I did not give a good mark for image quality.

Well, the subject here is extremely cool and definitely relevant to the theme. I wish those windows weren't in the background though, or that this had been shot with a wider aperture to blur the background more, as IMHO I find that it distracts from the very interesting foreground. Of course, I guess when you come across a scene like this, you have to take whatever background you can get.

Not only does this shout "3" but the second thing I thought was "Small, Medium, Large" ;)
