Post or Not Post

post or not post

Should I post or not post? Is it worth displaying on my blog? As I scroll through my library of images, that is the conundrum I find myself in. Will people find it interesting? Another question that I have at times is, do I post something that breaks the rules of photography? This image taken at Amboseli National Park, for instance, only shows the rear ends of the zebras.

Obviously, this time I went with posting this image simply because I like it. What about you? Do you find yourself in a conundrum at times too?

    I like zebra bums. They are very geometric. Took a few of those myself when I was in Masai Mara over a decade ago.

      I agree. The zebras entire bodies are so interesting. I would love to see you Maasai pics. Are any of them on your blog?

    I run into that a lot – it’s hard to know what people will find interesting. But I always find your photos interesting! 🙂

      Yup, it’s one of the concerns that gets to us all at some point. Most of the time, I try to base my decision on whether I find the image interesting or not. Then, there’s the other times. 😉

    It’s interesting to see the zebras from that angle. Now I know that their tails continue the striped pattern until near the tip. Would not have guessed that zebra tails are more like giraffe tails than horse tails.

      Glad you enjoyed the image. I never thought I’d get there either. It took my hubby to convince me that I had to get there when I got the chance. I am so glad I listened. 😊

      While on the safari, I often found myself talking to the wildlife way out in the distance. Under my breath I tried telling them, turn this way. . . No, that way . . . Now walk this way. . . Stop right there!

      No, they never listened. 😂

    There is a harmonic repetition of patterns that makes this an interesting composition worth sharing.

    There are definitely interesting things here. Like that tree, zebras minding their own business and giraffes strolling in the middle. And of course, the African landscape!
