Really like this image. Not so keen on the title though. Cuteness? A wild animal?
Sorry, just my opinion. I’ve stumbled upon your blog through a retweet which led me to your camera recommendations which were very useful. I’ve now signed up to your blog and look forward to more photographic advice.
Of course wild animals can be cute. Have you ever seen baby lions or giraffes or elephants? Hands down, according to my daughter, cute. (baby lions get an ultra cute rating) And penguins! Baby penguins are also cute.
Your daughter is absolutely right! I’m just thinking that for us boring grown-ups, giving the label ‘cute’ to such a creature subtracts something of its wildness.
You are also absolutely correct re young lions, penguins etc.. That’s baby cuteness!
Best wishes and have a great Sunday.
