There Is Always That One Stick

 If you enjoy taking pictures of nature and the critters that call the outdoors home...
you will know exactly what I am talking about.
You have felt the pain.
You have the perfect subject, you are close enough for a great picture...and there it is, that one stick.
It is almost like the ducks, birds and turtles know, they have to know...
that they are turning a brilliant picture into a bomb.










I know there are ways to remove these sticks...but I don't really edit my my pictures...
I don't know how and I don't want to learn.

Haha, you said that so well, Debbie! Yes, I know that stick that gets in the way of photos all too well 😅 But your shots are still great!
All the best from Austria, Traude

Actually Debbie, I think removing the sticks would take away from the pic... but that's just me.

Yes, sticks and objects that get in the way when taking photographs can so often be a pain!
However, I still like the photographs you take and share.

All the best Jan

I know exactly how frustrating these intrusions can be, Debbie. I have removed some at times using the clean up feature now on the ipad, but like yourself do not usually edit photos.

Hello Debbie :)
So sorry I'm late in commenting but I had a busy week and I really don't know where the time goes. I know what you mean about those sticks that can be so irritating when they appear over the image you were photographing, but i believe it's best not to try to illiminate them. Your photos are all lovely, and always are.I appreciated your last comment about my eye condition but don't know how to answer you, because my doctor doesnt communicate with me, does not even look at me. He is a bad doctor. Anyway thank you. :)
Have a happy weekend
Sonjia.

Oh yes I know the pain very well, I don't know how to edit them out either and I don't care to know, hubby has done that before, but not me. I love that your whole post is on those pics that were messed up because of sticks :)
