Hi all
Didn't know where to put this, but I have a question to bird photographers - does a ringed bird spoil a good photograph?
I understand that a LOT of birds are ringed and need to be ringed, but look at the photos I've uploaded of ospreys (not mine, but easily found on google), and I think the ring spoils these fantastic shots.
I think it's because the ring is not a part of nature and the inclusion of the ring/rings therefore takes away from a natural shot - in the same way a peregrine falcon looks 'better' on a branch than on an aerial.
I guess you could just photoshop it out if you're adept at that, but any thoughts anyone?
Again, I'm not being critical to the photographers because they cannot do anything about it.
