Hey guys...Sorry have been away for a little while, so not had a chance to get this up for voting.

Will put this up for a week for voting, and then suggest we open the comp for 4 weeks after that and keep repeating like that...

Here are the photos in posted order...



XEntity




sexytw




Russell




Serious




Binary Shadow




Zpyder:

wasn;t going to vote for him at first figuring that it wasnt really fare lots of photos vs 1....

He is such a cheat

well I did post the second single shot just in case it wasnt allowed, not like I was trying to cheat!

I wasnt sure about the out of focus shot, it sort of made it look actiony like the bird was moving...which it was!

Are you calling me shallow and unimaginative?

I didnt know with the single shot what to do, I always seem to struggle with how to frame pictures, I thought that itd look quite nice with the added grass at the bottom, but would it have been better had I cropped it so the blackbird was centre frame with not much grass around her?

@Zpyder - I think as mentioned by someone else that the last shot in the set you submitted was the better shot, at the moment we are even in votes but I think that one would have widened the gap.

I was wondering which out of mine to pick, I prefer the one I chose, but others have preferred the duck face, I think its difficult to pick when they are your own pics

Ye I know what you mean, but looks like you have taken the lead now, better start thinking about the next subject

Russell just noticed you have another vote!

I do actually really like that pic as well, I think it has come out really well

woop woop, and no before anyone thinks it I didnt sign up for another account and vote for myself again, although that is a good idea!

Sorry Zpyder, my post could be read that way couldnt it! I just like XEntitys better this time, yours is well focused and a good capture of the BB with his dinner.

I like the OOF grass in the foreground, gives a feeling of being low to the ground.
