I prefer less background and more subject ... after all the whole point of the image is to please the viewer or to recapture a memory and if it does that successfully then who cares what other "professionals" think about the proportions and composition. If you are trying to win competitions it is a different matter ....

For me the image has always got to say something....even if it's a bird photograph. So I need to include more of the surroundings sometimes to help get the message across....or if nothing else somewhere to stick an even more helpful explanatory caption for my obscure thinking (according to Jan).  Without something different....it's just a close up photo of a bird on a stick. Which is fine as a technical execution or record...I just want more fun with my images. This is what I mean, using the humble long tailed tit.... The basic shot...could be tighter cropped, could have background stick removed from its head etc to make it stand out as a shot of a long tailed tit.  But my preference is for more interesting unusual situations with more space around the subject to enhance the story....

Graham Whistler wrote:More rocks less birds almost full frame tech bits all same just a few seconds bofore above pixs. I prefer the other shots to this one. Somehow the stones look more like shingle, where as the greyer chunkier ones in the previous shots seem to enhance the image rather than distract. It emphasises a strong contrast between the delicacy of the bird and the hard rock. And after all it's a Turnstone not a Turnshingle. I am being very picky though Graham.
