A large part of creating an Etsy store is selecting and preparing photos for sale. Many times I am looking for similar subject matter so that my store does not appear to be without rhyme or reason. It is so hard to not get sidetracked......and tonight was no different. I was drawn to reflection photos.
Neither of these two photos will make it to my store. If you look closely, you can see me, the photographer.

This is a mistake made by almost every photographer at some point in their careers, but sometimes it makes for an interesting shot. I feel like I should make this a "Where is Waldo" contest. Can you find me?
Most of the time I just delete the photo, but for some reason, this one made it through the cut.
Then there is the one I took knowing I would be in the reflection. Then.....
out of nowhere...... someone walked into my picture. Oh.... I cropped her out, and I could Photoshop her totally out, but I am not sure this is a photograph that anyone but me would be interested in owning.
So, while I was at it, I decided to look for other photos with a "refection theme" in mind. I surprised myself by finding photos I had forgotten about.
Mostly because they are just nice photos

Then there are photos that are, well.....noteworthy. Yes, they will make it to my store.

So I leave you with the above. Comments welcome.
Maybe a subject for my next blog will have a nautical theme ....that is unless my "doors" draw me in.
(Pun intended.)
Until next time.
It's really hard choise a photo for the shop!
ReplyDeleteSome photo are incredible for the photographer but it's not appreciate from visitors!
Good luck!
You are so right Kristarka. Thank you for your comment.
