Awesome shot of the train tracks, Gravdigr! I have one sorta similar, but it was taken in winter. Nowhere near as much character as your shot.

OK...so next week is when I enter some of my photos in a photography contest at a local fair. In the "Wild Animal - Color" category, I'm entering either the butterfly photo I just posted...http://cellar.org/showpost.php?p=675340&postcount=971
or... this one of a ladybug I posted a while back...http://cellar.org/showpost.php?p=669198&postcount=895 Any thoughts on which one? A lot of my friends on facebook like the butterfly. It is more colorful, but the ladybug is more "artistic". I am still quite undecided.

The Butterfly does it for me, better lighting, creative use of depth of field, generally more detail on the little critter.
Good luck either way, dmg1969! |

I wasn't going to bring it up after all of the posting I did on it, but there was a snafu. I went up that night to enter them and I missed the fact that you had to pre-register by August 1st. I thought that was for displays like farm equipment, livestock, etc. No...it was for EVERYTHING. So, my oversight cost me entering them.
At least I know for next year. I was quite bummed. Thanks for asking though. Quote:

Honestly, Bruce, I'm not sure. This is the first year I'm entering. I have a big catalog about the fair. I'll have to look tonight to see if it says who judges. If not, I have a contact who I have spoken to already about when to submit them. I have to call her again with another question, so I will ask her. I agree that the butterfly will probably appeal to more people. I think only someone who does photography or has an eye for it will appreciate the minimalist aspect of the ladybug photo. If the judges are in the photography field, I'll definitely use the ladybug. If not, the butterfly it will be.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. But then again, it depends why you're entering, to win a prize or show your skills?

The butterfly is excellent but there is more to consider, photography-wise, in the ladybug shot.
