About editor's choice

One of the most fascinating things to many of us is a peek inside the mind of another photographer. How did you arrive at your choice? What made you choose a specific image out of those available?

The purpose of this group is to allow that peek inside our heads. Posting here MUST be in one of two formats:

1) A "contact sheet" style, like this accident strip or portrait series. Use notes or descriptions to tell us your thoughts on the series, which you selected as your final pick, and why. Triptychs and the like are perfect for this purpose if you only have a few to choose from.

2) A gateway to a series. If you post a single image, it must either be part of a series, set, tag group, or link to somewhere where the final choice and the unchosen shots can be seen. Tell us why you chose that final photo from the others, engage in dialogue about it. Perhaps post a thread about it and post thumbnails there.

*** What doesn't belong here?
*Any single image without any explanation and/or link to a further series. (Feel free to link to outside images hosted on your website or elsewhere if you don't want to post them all to your photostream.)
*More than one or two from any series - please don't flood the pool with alllll those considered. If you need help creating a contact sheet, just ask. We're a friendly bunch. :)

Members, all of us should begin self-policing the group to keep it on task. Images that don't belong should be removed. If you have questions about whether an image qualifies, there will be a thread for that purpose. Don't be peeved if yours gets removed, just add more information about it and the necessary additions, and pop it back in here!

Come join us, but kindly leave your ego at the door.
