I thought about the sharpshinned pic.....I was thinking about shying away from wildlife though as many of the guys can and do shoot zoo crap.

Duck #1
bear #2
trout #3
goat #4
Ram #5
Just the way I like them. They are all great. :dunno:
Post by: Decker on August 29, 2010, 09:56:48 PM
The bear picture is my second pic because of the great composition, third-lines, DOF, subject angle and pose - outstanding composition. The only reason this wasn't my 1st pic is due to a little bright exposure. A small lightroom or photoshop tweak could change this.
All around beautiful pics. Good luck.
(If I can log on somewhere and lend you my vote let me know!)

Any of them could win, of course it all depends on the judge(s)...
i.e. does the judge hunt? Does the judge fish? Has the judge ever hiked to the elevation necessary to photograph a goat? Is the judge creeped out by the tiny one-legged tadpole in it's death throes... :chuckle:

That said, you have a 'few' Nany's and kids that I remember that are also exquisite shots that I'm surprised that you didn't include as finalists. I remember the kids that nearly had, 'Expression' in the photo.

I really love great action shots too. The trout or wood duck (or similar) could do really well. I know you're a highly skilled photographer, Bone, so don't take this as a criticism of your skills, but the trout and wood duck photos aren't as sharp as they could be which, in a photo contest, will matter to judges. Having said that the wood duck reflection is phenomenal and may well overcome any issues with razor sharp focus. :twocents: GOOD LUCK!!

That is just what I'm talking about bone.I have seen a lot of your pics on here and I know I haven't seen 10% of the pics you take.
I have seen so many of your phonomenal pics of wildlife as well as some of the country (but don't let this go to your head, if they start looking like crap I'm gonna say something. :chuckle: ). How do you pick which ones to consider? How? I would like to read a thread of your all time favorites, which ones are YOUR favorites and why. I'm not trying to blow smoke up your butt OR ki$$ your ass. I just would like to know.

Please keep teasing. But a story behind one or two would be cool also.
