Hi GM WHC and welcome to project Noah.
As per our FAQs http://www.projectnoah.org/faq all photographs must be taken by yourself and ideally should be of wild organisms living in their natural environment.
We do not accept copies taken from elsewhere hence one of your pictures has been removed.
We also prefer not to have humans appearing in any picture except where it is unavoidable, and in this case such pictures should not be in the first position.
