Photo Comp Sept 2012 - Animals

[F-ZeroOne]

Those are either really tiny birds or you are seriously into garden fences!

Those are either really tiny birds

They were actually very small indeed and I just snapped them as quick as I could. Plus, I'm really new to this whole camera thing and wouldn't know how to setup a decent shot yet if I tried....but I am learning...slowly

Huh? I think the composition is absolutely fine. Big background spaces can put a lot of focus on the main subject and it does in that case. Nice pic.

[F-ZeroOne]

Oops, sorry if that came across as criticism! It's a great shot, I was just amused by how huge the fence panels seemed in comparison to the birds...!

Gorgeous little scene here

Whiteball

Liking the composition here, and the slightly out of focus background really makes the birdies pop.

F-ZeroOne

Very contemplative - loving the expression and the catchlights in the eyes

RiK

Lovely shot - liking the peeking-out-ness

Zoot

D'awww! Adorable shot of an adorable subject!

I'll set the poll up at midnight as that makes the timing better for when it ends.

If I may ask, better for what?

So I can set the poll end to 'x' num days, so that it actually ends properly at midnight on the last day and no further voting is allowed.

If you don't set an end time then it's possible to get spurious votes after the end time and hence could change the result.

So, we have a winnar!

Congrats to ElfQrin.. PM me a topic for october and I'll set it up!
