Well, I have finally finished editing the photos from the trip to Central Florida Zoon and Botanical Gardens. I took about 700 photo's in the 5 hours I was there, and edited it down to about 150 - so, yeah, I know I posted a lot of them, and "spammed" the forum. Sorry about that. But, the good news is I didn't post them all - LOL!

I would like suggestions to avoid clutter and spam. Here are some ideas, I am open to your suggestions:

1. Pick my favorite (see below for this shoot's favorite(s) and only post it.
2. Continue to post one photo per post and limit it to a dozen or so threads.
3. Post one thread with all the photos in it.
4. Create a slide show, or a website somewhere else and post a link to it, instead of posting them all here.
5. Go someplace else to post my photographs.

What would you like to see?

And. here are my favorite two.

I think I am leaning toward the one with a few green feathers, but I really like both. One of the things I like about them is that they were taken with one of my least expensive lenses. This proves you don't need to spend a fortune on the expensive lenses to get good photos (well, at least I think these two are good - LOL )

For those interested:
New Nikon Z72 (love it) (expensive)
Inexpensive Nikon 55-300/f4.5-5.6,
Shot at: ISO7200, F5.6, 140mm & 300MM, 1/500sec.

A webpage for your work would be nice. You might also look into copyrighting your pics as well. Many are print worthy, or maybe you don't care about others using your work.

Oh, check out the difference between plural and possessive punctuation. Photos vs photo's. (Sorry. Retired editor.)

Thanks for posting the specs, it's always nice to see what people are using to get those tack sharp closeups!

I also like the one with green feathers. The composition is better with more depth. Love seeing your photos on this site, but a slide show on a larger site or YouTube would give you broader exposure.
