I designed an Ostrich for this challenge, but the legs were to thick, and after 6 folds I gave up the model, especially after seeing the ostrich by multislash. So decided to design another fast animal

Thanks! Well the quetzal isn't really the one for judging. The main focus is the falcon, I just wanted it too chase something to get the idea of "speed" I had the quetzal lying around so I used that...

Nice greyhound too :)

I didn't asked because of your photo but because I wanted to enter my own ostrich aswell as the greyhound. Or maybe add a rabbit or hare.

Ok, sorry... My bad, it was all in the same comment so I thought it was all directed to me. I think multiple models should be ok, would like to see what else you can up with

I'm not the judge of course, but I'd think multiple model should not be a problem - we've had too few models rather than too many, lately :)

Browsing with Chrome, I just right clicked on the photo on the instagram page and selected Inspect Element.
That brings up the HTML source of the page and highlights the section of code related to the picture. Within that code you can find the URL of the image. It even shows a little popup preview of the image when you mouse over the URL. I just copied that and posted it in the usual way.
