I like this series of photos! The clouds and the rooftops are quite lovely, not to mention that beautiful wary crow! I think you would have to get uglier than this to prove your point!
Thanks Melinda, the clouds do look nice with that little patch of blue amongst the greyness and white. The Crow was on to me as soon as I started creeping up on it lol
I cool way to make your point and its the same for me, I may take many shots to get the one that I want and share, and for taking photos we are often drawn tot he nicer side of life
Yep this is the experience of most of us I assume. We may take 1000's of photos that will never see publication and the weird thing is that we sometimes get lucky.
I recall someone saying to me years ago that for every hour of video that we film we may get 1 minute that is usable. I suppose the same applies to photography?
We only post what we feel are our best images of the nicer side of life as you say. Who wants to see ugly? We can watch the mainsteam for that lol
Well I avoid the mainstrean a lot to avoid ugly to be honest LOL, but thats the way it is, I do sometimes try to get images of the darker side but ones that perhaps make it look better than it is, such as my Art of trash posts I do randomly
I just realized i misread what you were saying on the other post I did realize the other account was yours
@molometer, Specially those Bricks reflecting the strong effect and this picture is storytelling and i want to give a Title to this picture and that is The Solo Bird.
Howdy sir molometer! well, I don't know if this is real ugly or not although it isn't a thing of beauty or wouldn't be for most people, especially with the standards that we have on steemit! lol. But it sure COULD have been a thing of beauty if that crow had cooperated.
Those birds are SO smart and wary! But your situation also brings up the point of the parking lot on top of a grocery store which I've never heard of. Is that common in England? I'd think getting the carts down to the store level would be quite a hassle. Is there an elevator I assume?
So the photos are interesting and a little stark but I don't know if I can call them ugly. Do you have anything uglier to prove that England has ugly areas? lol. Or maybe there ARE no super ugly areas in your town! I think this is a great post though sir, thanks so much for the mentions and illustrations.
My pleasure and it's always nice to think about what we are doing and why. Most people never see the work that goes into getting a decent photo.
They must think they all appear by magic. It takes work and time to get good photos and as for the 'standards' on here I couldn't possible comment haha as it is all rather subjective.
As to finding ugly things to photograph? I have no interest in that whatsoever. There is enough ugly in the world already and I don't feel the need to share it but thanks for the input it was interesting to show how not to do it.
Rooftop car parks are rare and yep, it does have a lift.
Howdy again sir molometer! oh ok, that was ugly enough then! Yes I know the time and effort and work put in by you more serious photographers and it's just amazing what it takes but hopefully soon it will be very good pay for your time invested!
I think it will be anyway, hopefully we'll know this year.
thanks again for that post, it was very intertaining and informative!
Yes sir, from everything I've read I think it should start moving up this year, perhaps significantly but then like you said, predicting the future is a fools errand! lol. I'll put it this way: I would be surprised if it didn't move upward significantly this year. The institutional money is still waiting on the sidelines getting ready to come in.

Not to worry I get mixed with two accounts as well and I run them lol
I struggle to keep up with one account let alone two LOL
Pretty! Only Pretty!

I'm all in for the pretty too. 😉
I wonder, if Mr. Crow would have his blog, what would he write 😄

That's a great question, why not try writing it? 😉 You could be the new Kafka! 😄
LOL

I like it. Great title
Thank you. Have a great time ahead. 👍
That’s hilarious @molometer.
This crow like to drink out of muddy water.
Looks like drinking muddy water is a good idea if Crows drink it. They are so smart? 😉
May not be that close but still makes a neat picture of the crow with the brooding clouds overhead.
Thanks Mike, I didn't even think about it that way but you are right?
Thanks Mike, I didn't
Even think about it that
Way but you are right?

Haha yes I agree,
And for the money that I've already invested in steem!?
We have all taken a bath on steem this year. Hopefully it will recover...some day?
