Getting things in proportion


I take many photographs each week, but recently I have been loading less and less onto Flickr. My laptop is bursting with photographs and I think that some springtime pruning is necessary.

Often when loading onto Flickr I load a picture, make a few minor adjustments, and then delete it. I often feel the need to crop, it is like a compulsion, but then when I look again if the composition isn't right it is deleted. I am getting very picky with my piccies.

Do you think that sometimes we just try too hard? A friend has been away skiing this week, which is a expensive sport which I love, but cannot enjoy these days. Anyway I used to find that by day three I was starting to try much too hard and the result was a bad frustrating day on the slopes.

What do you think about the pictures here, would you have chopped the top of Sarkozy's head off, there are a few who would like to do that for real! The Presidents head!
Here is a picture of a tree that has been felled in the forest, they chopped an awful lot off the top of this!

Chopped and Gone

Have a nice Saturday and I hope that you dont have to try too hard.

The French word for Springtime is Printemps.

The French word for pruning and shearing is cisailler.

PS...Oh dear LadyFi read this before I had corrected various bits, cause my PC crashed..or am I worrying more than I should!
