This picture should be entered into some kind of contest. What great timing by the photographer as Jennie Forsyth, 9, of Enfield Conn., gets surprise lick in the face by her calf Lillian, while Forsyth was trying to show the calf how to walk for showing, Friday, August 20, 2010, during the Hartford County 4H Fair in Somers.

Hummingbird’s wings are so fast, so I find this truly a great shot that the photographer has no blur in his shot. In this Tuesday, Aug. 17, 2010 photo, a female ruby-throated hummingbird lands on the perch of a feeder in Carmel, Ind. (AP Photo/Michael Conroy)

I’ve seen a lot of baseball pictures, but not one with a fan getting hit with a baseball in the eye. Here, an unidentified fan is struck by a foul ball during a baseball game between the Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington, Texas, Monday, Aug. 23, 2010.

The photographer could have taken the easy way out and photographed the side of this little animal getting a drink. However, there was some effort put into this photo as the photographer is looking down at the water going into the mouth. Good thought by the photographer. The photo was taken Aug. 14, 2010, of a market guilt as it gets a little extra pampering and a drink of water as she waits to enter the show ring at the Miami County Fair in Troy, Ohio.

We’ve all seen water-in-the-face-to-cool-off pictures, but this one caught my attention. Why? Maybe it’s the reflection on the sunglasses; or the detail in the water coming off the fan’s face. Either way, it’s a nice photo. The picture is at the Lollapalooza music festival in Grant Park on Sunday, Aug. 8, 2010, in Chicago.

I’m not quite sure I’d do this … then again, I’m sure this guy is a lot younger than me, too!
