ASA PHOTOGRAPHIC COMPETITION
These were the best bird photos that I have judged in a long time, well
done!
1st Prize:
Cheryl Mares photo Black-bellied Hummingbird was an
outstanding photograph. Colour, sharpness and impact, the bird about to
have a feed has excellent interest.
2nd Prize:
Also by Cheryl Mares another great impact photo, great colour
and sharpness.
3rd Prize:
By David Newman- Male Painted Finch, excellent colour,
sharpness and impact.
There were 19 photos highly commended which was excellent.
Some points to help: photo of birds must be sharp. Watch cropping at
top and bottom of picture, never cut off head/ plumage or feet, watch the
background and depth of field. For impact try to get as close as possible !
Again congratulations on your efforts.
