Tonights Camera Club was slightly different to normal in that members brought in a memory stick containing up to three images for showing to the members, and giving a chance to comment on other peoples work.
I must admit, I did think that not enough people might bring USB’s in, and we would run out. I needn’t have been concerned, if anything, the last couple were rushed because we were going to run out of time.
There was a big selection of images, and I have to confess to a small degree of admiration for judges, they do have a difficult task.
The header picture was one of three I had put in. I had put the colour version of this into a competition, and it hadn’t done very well. The judge thought that the bird had been photoshopped in, whereas I knew that was not the case. The bird really had been there, as taken.
The evening reinforced the view that as an amateur photographer, I take the pictures I like taking, sometimes even if I don’t understand why I’m taking a particular picture, especially if I end up actually really liking that picture – does that make sense?
