Thank you for you kind comments Wendy. I am not professional and I
have never done any formal study of the Art of Photography, so I'm probably not qualified to dispense advice to anyone. But since you asked; I have to say that I think my first "rule" to follow is to try to keep the composition "tight". Whether through original framing or subsequent cropping, it is often true that Less is More. I think that your own recent Hardenbergia shot is a good example of that. I think that avoiding distracting backgrounds is probably the second "rule" I would list. When you are looking at the main subject in the viewfinder, it is often easy to overlook the fact that in the final image that subject may be lost in the confusion of miscellaneous stuff that is behind it. Anyway, thanks again. JD On Fri, 22 Feb 2008 09:11:45 -0800, "Wendy7" wrote: Very nice photographs John, I can see you have the knack in your genes.
