Your Pick: Best Storytelling Captures from your FAV list

March 17th, 2011
I'm not sure if this is the case with you, but I feel like one crucial element of a great photograph is its ability to tell a story. To draw us into what is going on at that particular moment of capture. It's something that I need to work on...

It will be great if you can share with all of us one capture (preferably from your FAV list) that best accomplishes that.

For those of you who are new to this 365 site, you can post a capture by copying and pasting the code from the "Share" box (right below "Tags").

Much love to all of you :)

@waniorawarrior - This image is so weirdly ambiguous, and yet it seems there could/should be a great story about it ...

@marshy15 - Nathan's pic, for me, says a lot!! I think it's fab!!!

March 17th, 2011

@afronaut. All of his pictures tell a story to me but this one is my favorite

Follow @mtol I love her photos. She does very little editing (only cropping so far), and most of the time are SOOC.

Oh my!! That's hard to choose! I like this one by @sj

I find it powerful and think it definitely tells a story




And this one by @swooshbourne because I just can't choose one. I mean, look at those eyes. Sorry.

First I didn't realize I have THREE pages of favorites. Second, I didn't realize it would be so hard to choose ONE favorite. But I kept going back to this one...while I LOVE the photo's of children & people..this picture brought to mind the beginning of an old fairytale type story.. It even brings to mind, "Four and twenty black birds baked in a pie.." then it takes a turn and an Albert Hitchcock reel starts playing in my head... It takes on several "story" in my head.

Oh this is from aikiuser..stupid me.

This is brilliant. Looks like a movie still. @gerard74

This one from @michelleyoung. Obviously tells a 'Toy Story' :o) I fav'd it immediately. It brought a nostalgic lump to my throat.

Marie Ball's @naveeblues capture of this bird is hilarious. If birds could talk, she'd be getting an ear full.

March 17th, 2011
There is definitely a story to be told here ... lol
@giselle

March 17th, 2011
This would be quite a funny story!
March 17th, 2011
This one from the Zookeeper (@teena) does tell a great story between Camille and Cutie, an orangutan and an otter.

one of my favs from Julia Richards (@_juliarichards) - theres a mystery behind this photo that I'm just so attracted to, makes me ask alot of questions about the two subjects. It leaves alot of room for interpretation regarding a story line. love her use of blur here, just a great photo in general - very interesting :)

(awesome thread too btw :D)
