I had to go with Moonie on this one. That was one bad picture! A tripod and proper exposure would have solved the whole thing, but the result was pretty trashcan-worthy.

Edit: I really like the entries by 0TheSwerve0 and Andre. Neither of them are "bad", just interesting results of the camera settings in dynamic situations. And ZZ wins "best unintentional special effect" - Killer shot!

*takes a bow* Thank you, thank you! The only thing I'm left wondering is...why did I save that photo all these years?! :smile:
 
Yep, me too. I think MBs shot sucks the best.
 
I went with Moonbear too. That picture is just bad.
 
you really suck, BobG, but I still love you.:!)
 
Yeah I had to go with moonbear as well
 
I voted Moonbear. That's one bad picture.
 
:biggrin: I knew if I kept entering contests, I'd finally find one where I had just the right picture to have a good chance of winning. :smile:

Yep, Moonbear it is in this bunch. I actually can't figure out why Andre entered his shot in this contest. Catching a bird mid-flight like that is quite a trick.

Anyhow, and Moonbear said, she couldn't even figure out which side was up with that one. No kididing. :biggrin:
