Members’ Picks September 2025

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

Members reference what you might consider a five star photo. Give a call out to the photographer and share their photo even if it lies in the Shark Tank and feel free to give a Critique on why it trips your Trigger. Be sure to mention the photographer and the Thread you saw it in. (Thank you @robertapple)

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

I thought this was a very strong composition by @patography

[Patrick]

Yeah , love how the light is cast , excellent depth

[Pat Garrett]

Thanks for the pick, Rob and the comment Patrick

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

Keep bringing it, Pat. Last few weeks on the forum has been staggeringly good from a technical photography point of view.

[Patrick]

I have always said that about Pat , always makes it clear what we are suppose to look within the composition as well and very good understanding of light.

[Dahlia Ambrose]

Stunning composition and great pick!

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

At this point, I am basically a movie star, mate.

[Patrick]

haha , looking good 🙂

[davidc]

The colours and the composition are super! @patography

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

That’s a great one, Pat. It actually reminds me of the image that used to be on the Kodak labs packaging when you used to get your photos developed at one of their mobile labs.

[Patrick]

Good pick well deserved choice for a members pick 🙂

when i clicked your link above it took me straight to my own shot and i thought it was me you were posting a shot from haha , sorry mate 🙂

[Pat Garrett]

Thank you David, Tob and Patrick.  It reminded me of some of the Sesame Street images used to visualize “big” and “Little”

[Robert Apple]

Thanks for posting members pics @admin-2 Rob, I was very far off grid for 2.5 weeks, Barley saw another human and no tech other then my Camera gear and a tablet to load pics on , no cell, internet, ect.  Service of any kind, very peaceful.

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

We were going to send a search party, mate. But then I figured you probably didn’t want to be found. 😉

[davidc]

Sounds like Heaven!!!

[Dahlia Ambrose]

The best kind of peace Robert 🙂

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

This one by @patrickw-2  has an extremely compelling composition.

[Patrick]

Very very kind Rob , thank you very much.

[Dahlia Ambrose]

A very compelling shot. Love it Patrick 🙂

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

[Dahlia Ambrose]

And thank you so much again Patrick 🙂

[Dahlia Ambrose]

Thank you Rob 🙂

[Robert Apple]

Beautifully done Dahlia.

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

Literally the next photo I looked at was also another cracker. This one from @patrickw-2

[Patrick]

Thank you Sir , just after rush hour this morning i knew there was an chance an odd straggler might come off the trains so took a short detour on my way to the shops 🙂 Glad i did.

[Dahlia Ambrose]

So many compositional guidelines in play here Patrick and it is an awesome photo 🙂

[Patrick]

Thank you kindly Dahlia , some days work out ok 🙂 I ended up with about 6 frames i can use from my short visit to the shop.

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

Your off-the-cuff walks seem to result in so many more keepers than my planned shoots. lol

[Patrick]

That is why i stopped doing planned ideas on my outings , great observation mate what you say is something i was thinking about last night , i am also more open to stuff most people would not give a second thought to , even in street photography most times the shooter is looking for that big complete seen , with layers colours shapes people ecct , i notice the simpler images seem to resonate much more on social media with people , something like an old crushed can laying on the pavement shot and edited in a certain way can outdo things we see posted a million times no matter how well that image is shot and edited , yet not all but many people would not even notice the can in the first place and if they did they prob think it’s garbage without considering it as a subject…. It’s not grand enough  😀

[Rob Wood (Admin)]

Yeah, I certainly hear that.

It still won’t stop me trying to get the grand Majestic shot though. 😉

[Patrick]

it’s our duty mate go for it 🙂 me as well tbh
