The "Game Photography Contest", May edition

Thanks to muratogut, RadonGOG and benderz for the previous contests!

This month's theme is: Animals
No matter if it's a tiny bunny or a giant dragon, hostile or friendly, as long as it is some kind of animal.

The rules from the original Game Photography contest by muratogut apply:
Quote from muratogut :

Contest: Take a photo from a game, and put it here. [...]

Rules (important):
1- These pictures must look like a real photograph and without the game interface, chat panel or any similar panel.
2- This is not a screenshot contest, so "hey look at my high score" or "phear mai l33t skillz" type of screenshots will not be counted as a photograph.
3- You can use minimal photo editing, like contrast, sharpness, hue, brightness adjustment, but please no photo montages.
4- Suitable photography forms and techniques will be accepted, aerial, architectural, cloudscape, landscape, street, wildlife photography etc... Treat the contest as an art contest, so you don't have to do things like photojournalism, documentary photography.
5- Don't cheat. If you put a picture that doesn't belong to you and this is detected, your picture will be out of contest. Take new pictures for this contest.
The prizes:
1. $5.99 GOG game of your choice
2. System Shock 2 (GOG)
3. Divine Divinity (GOG)
4. Dracula 4+5 (GOG) kindly donated by Ingsoc85

Entries are automatically in for the $5.99 GOG game. You can share as many pics as you want.

I don't know if I can continue this in June, so if you want to take over, let me know :)

very nice topic, after a flora themed contest, the fauna should definately not be neglected, after all there are plenty of wonderful designed animals in games. +1 for your contest

here's a picture of a prehistoric animal taken in Paraworld (I just cut the interface away, the game has a very large interface -.-): http://abload.de/img/118874746-4lgac7.jpg

I'm not in for anything.
Whee~! I love these threads! *marks as favorite*

Nothing to submit at the moment, 'cause I need to run, but *removes shades in best Terminator impersonation* "I'll be back."
Thank you for the giveaway! In for the $5.99 game

Cool topic, but I haven´t got any screens that are suitable for this contest yet. I´ll definitvly be in for the 5.99$-game, but it might take a while...
Thank you and +1 Laulajatar ! :-D

I'll be in, let me search if I've some animals photos in stock and I'll come back in few days for sharing.

AdamR: No pics at the moment, but I'll likely have some later today. I love your first example pic. What game is it?
Thank you! It is from Guild Wars 2. I've been playing it for a year now and I have taken sooo many screenshots. A really beautiful game world. I love the turtle. I think I didn't finish a single side quest when I was playing. I definitely have to replay this.


And thanks for sharing all the other nice pictures.
I'm looking forward to seeing more pics this month :)

I attached another one from my Guild Wars 2 screenies.

I´m not really whether those entries are fair or not (as many others proberbly would have also liked to put them in), but I´m still giving them to you to judge!
The first three screens are showing a late scene of the game (no spoiler!), which features a ladybug!
The scene is scripted (although the decisions in the game may cause different lightings), so it didn´t take so much efford to shoot that screens. The only thing I changed was that I actually used UberSampling at Faktor 3 (so Image is rendered in 3240P) and the various blur-effects of Witcher II

But what´s really unfair is the forth screen, which is actual from the famous ingame-featured CGI-Scene that was also the first teaser for Witcher III that is shown AFTER credits roll out! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ud5NIT6ULVE)
So my screenie is actually from Witcher II, but
Anyways, even if you don´t accept it as an entry, I just wanted to share this lovely, Ultra-Awesome-Bunny!
