p.1 #1 · Help with upcoming show.

My photo club has a show coming up at The Va State Library shortly. I have picked 2 of the 3 shots that I will display, but my wife and I are having a disagreement on the 3rd shot. I'm not going to say who likes which shot because I don't want to influence anyone.

They are 2 different shots, but one is landscape and one is portrait, so that is how I'm differentiating them. Please vote for one. You can say why if you like.
Thanx,
Ron

Photos are in the first reply...

Yessir Portrait

Stunner Ron, I absolutely love it! My eye goes right to the subject and stays there. In the landscape it kind of roams around.

If you won the battle and picked the landscape

I would clone out the incoming thingies on the top.

I voted for the portrait shot. It shows the main subject (the bee) more.

Portrait.

Landscape looks like the bee/wasp is just getting in the way.

One is a bee shot the other a flower shot with a bee for me

Both are nice Ron.

As it stands, I like the first one best, wonderful detail on the bee and a very good draw to the bee and a nice frame filling shot.

Hey Ron, here is how I see #2

Thanx all for your opinions. I think it's fairly safe to say the portrait "won". That's the one I'll use ~ Ron

I agree, if the focus is the bee, then the portrait. Oh now I see that I'm a bit late. Oh well, what Karl did with the other photo really helped turning it around.

Ken, I preferred the portrait, but it's a major crop and I'm not sure how well it will hold up when printed 11X14, so I was planning on using the other one. Now I will put the time in it to hopefully make it pop...

And thanx Karl - I like wht you did to the landscape ver.

Portrait. I also like Karl's interpretation. Seems if the subject is posed low in the frame "on it's back", if you will, I have to resist the urge to stand on my head to view it.

All are sweet shots....Mitch
