ROFL Charlotte, that reminds me of one of the most stupid photography judges I have ever seen....
I entered a picture I had taken of my wife stood on Beachy Head (No, not contemplating anything so let's not go down that road!) gazing out to see. I had her positioned in a lovely spot on the third looking into the picture. Her hair was being gently swept by the wind and she was razor sharp focused with the sea behind in focus but soft to provide a nice contrast. In short, everyone before and after who made comments said 'I really liked that one!'
The title of the picture was quite important.... 'I SEE NO SHIPS!' which was the title I had intended before I even took the shot.
The judge's comment, even though the title was read out before he gave his comments: 'Well, I like the technical aspects of the shot, it's been well taken... but what it really needs is a ship in this open area of the sea!'
Like, doh! If it had a ship in it, the title would be a bit stupid! Guess which judge never got invited back to my club!
Cheers,
Rob
