Making One Decision From Many Possibilities

These Are The Rejects

Choosing today’s My Final Photo came down to forcing myself to decide which of the photos I made and edited of Sam Eckard would represent my name.

These are the rejects, all of which I would be proud to have my name on. Which they do in the watermark.

They’re made with a variety of focal lengths, foreground and background objects, and angles.

These are the edits. There are a multitude of unedited photos that didn’t make the cut. Shots that were too tight or too loose, poor peak action, and distracting backgrounds were among the deciding factors.
