I haven’t used a square format for my photographs very much, but I am finding it fits more compositions than I thought. I now remember it doesn’t always work well with my page headers though.
This gull shot fit nicely with the format so it has me wondering just how important the header photo is. Certainly not important enough for me to re do the web site 😆.
Black and white Ring-billed Gull. Port Charles, Virginia.
A nice wide 16:9 header always looks great, of course – but honestly, the square shot works just fine too.
I should probably have a generic header image for times like this. My web site is so huge I think twice about anything I publish.
This web site serves as a quick research for people to check where and what has been seen in places or months in previous years. Like when were the White Pelicans seen in the basin, and are there more or less over the last five years, etc. Didn’t plan it but there is a lot of data here. 12,000 pages and at least 100,000 images. 😳
OMG – That is .. a lot !
😂, and I have archived a lot, usually a once a month project. My WordPress is an old business account and I have been told if I don’t maintain it they will change my account and give me only 50gig space as compared to my current 200gig. I guess they want me to move on considering they get 4 new accounts paying what I do for a single account.
Eh? Don’t be a Square, Daddy-O!!! I too like that format, but have not used it in a while.
Somewhere I went to a wider landscape format and rarely used anything else. Switching to MFT gear the more traditional size RAW (like back in the day negatives) pushed me out of my habits.
An old-timey gull photo, cool!
😆, yeah. B&W actually worked here
