I was hoping someone would step in before this, where I am forced to rely on the shattered remnants of my memory, but here goes... At the GFM nature weekend bash, Mark and Doug do a presentation of the results and make a precis of some of the criticisms of the ones that did not hit the bullseye. One of their complaints was that many pictures had poor framing, with the subject centred in the frame. The presentation slide show enhanced this feature by making a "boing" sound every time a slide was shown that featured this. Hence "boingy" nature shots, especially portraits. My own preference is for pictures that give at least some idea of the environment of the organism. Yours were quite good for that. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
