DavidTriplett Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Basic Guidelines: In the strictest sense, nature photography should not include "hand of man elements". Please refrain from images with buildings or human made structures like roads, fences, walls. Pets are not permitted. Captive subjects in zoos, arboretums, or aquariums are permitted, but must be declared, and must focus on the subject, not the captivity. Images with obvious human made elements will likely be deleted from the thread, with an explanation to the photographer. Guidelines are based on PSA rules governing Nature photography which also cover the Nature Forum. Keep your image at/under 1000 pixels on the long axis for in-line viewing. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site at Flicker, Photobucket, your own site, etc Each member please post no more than just one image to this weekly thread per week. If the information is available, many members appreciate information on your approach to making the image and the names, both common and scientific, of the subject(s). However, while encouraged, these are not required as a component of your contributions.

Mary Doo Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Spotted hyena. Their being "not that cute" (except for the babies) contributes to being generally disliked and portrayed as the "bad guys" in children's story books. Some consider them cruel in the way they kill their prey and unscrupulous the way they steal food from other animals. To me, they always look stressed out as they try to survive in the jungle. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShunCheung Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Clark's grebe with catch. Last year, we had a discussion about the difference between Clark's grebe vs. Western grebe: https://www.photo.net/discuss/threads/monday-in-nature-29-march-2021.5524810/#post-5891863 The difference is subtle. I made a mistake and was promptly corrected in a birding group. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
