We’re back again with another installment of our reader photos roundup from the Photography Bay Flickr Group.
Clicking on the photos will take you to its Flickr page where you can read more about the shot, leave a compliment or connect with the photographer.
As always, thanks for being a part of Photography Bay and sharing your work with the rest of us.
If you missed out on this round of reader photos, feel free to join in on the fun and add your photos to the Photography Bay Flickr Group and maybe we’ll get you next time.
*Note: You must allow image embedding from your Flickr account if you want your images to be selected for the weekly photo roundup. We only embed from Flickr so you have full control of if/when your images are displayed. You are welcome to contribute images to the group without them appearing on Photography Bay; however, embedding must be turned on to share them here.
The first image, the puffin taking off, is not a competition-worthy capture as it exists now. There should be less “back” space & more “front” space to capture the essence of the title. The puffin is “seen” to be taking off into a solid wall, the “wall” being the right edge of the image.
Further down in this group there is another image which suffers from the same malady. An owl is flying into the imaginary wall of the right edge of the image. Much of the “back” side can be cropped without a smidgen of loss of impact.
Both of these images, if possible, should be re-edited with much more severe cropping behind the flight direction of the birds, and more open space ahead of the birds, to give the image a more dramatic effect, especially in light of their respective titles.
Thank you for featuring my images in your readers photo round up. Cheers!
