Sitting

An attempt at minimalism.... Not convinced it is though. But I have got out, well I had to get out to collect hubby from station so he can come with me to parents evening. It was good to have my camera in hand again.

Just seen this needs better cropping.....

Nice shot

I think you could have got away with the bird and a very small amount of the light he is perching on, with all the negative space then stretching out to the left of him :)

[Sally Ings]

Very cool idea and silhouettes

[Lyn Berriman]

Cool pov!

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

That's one of my family there (Lady Magpie), lovely capture and the bird is saying "Let there be light".

[Graeme Stevens]

Great shot, I like it :)

[Simply Amanda]

Yeah for getting out with the camera again!

[Irene]

Good shot even if it needs a bit of cropping. Glad you're getting out again

[Bill Fenske]

Cool capture. How did you get that pov?

[Pat Knowles]

Yes @archielogical is right just crop it just above the centre peeve of the light & leave space to the left...would make more of a statement. Great idea & good in b/ w .

[Lisa Villella]

Nice minimalist shot!

[gloria jones]

Simple, well composed shot

[Stephanie Swift]

Nice pov and comp. I like the simplicity.

[Chris Johnson]

Super shot. The black contrast of the bird works really well against the white sky!

Nice image! I have a lot of admiration for the self-critique. I heard someone say that a good photographer is his or her own harshest critic. I think there's some truth in that, although with anything I'm sure there's a line...

I really like this shot Ruth, but it would be interesting to see how it looked if cropped as @archielogical suggested.

[Jessica]

It is! Love the composition. The right side is slightly distracting, but I didn't immediately notice it.

[Nicole]

Very lovely shot! Lke the composition!

[Margaret Obey]

Great shot Ruth. Love it in b&w.
