This week, Amy has chosen Negative Space as the topic for the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge. At first I thought this might be a bit tricky. As some of you have already pointed out, when we take pictures, we are usually focusing on the subject rather than the surrounding space, but the more I looked at it, the more I realized that many of the images in the photo files might fit the bill and in the end I had to stop myself from adding to the list.

Awesome series for the theme, Sue!
Thanks, Indira! Who knew that negative could be so positive.
That’s a difficult topic but your wonderful photos fit the bill perfectly. (I love the little bug flying in for supper for the yellow bird! )
Thanks, Marianne! I hadn’t noticed the bug photo-bombing the goldfinch picture until I put it up on the computer screen and then it made me laugh. One of the benefits of taking several consecutive shots. I couldn’t have timed it better if I’d tried.
Great selections for this topic! I love the images of the bee, bu, and dragonfly, especially, the red berry shot is stunning!
Thanks, Amy! This challenge has certainly given me a whole new way of looking at subjects and their surroundings.
I like the pictures very much but the theme didn’t seem to be one that was useful on this occasion.
Thanks, Tom. I have to admit, I’d never heard of the expression ‘negative space’ before, but then I’m no expert on photography. I just enjoy capturing the images.
Keep on capturing them. 🙂
Great selection of the images, Sue. They’re all lovely and I especially liked the bee, dragonfly and the yellow bird.
Thanks, Miriam!
You’re welcome, Sue!
You surely have Sue – your images are wonderful and fit the challenge perfectly. I loved your butterfly, bug and bird sequence.
Thanks, Tina! I have to admit, the cropping tool came in very handy for this challenge.
Lovely photos, Sue. The cherries did it for me. 🙂
Thanks, Tracy! This challenge definitely made me look at my pictures in a whole different way.
I am enjoying the photograph, second from the last, of the dried seaweed in the sand.
Thank you so much, Khurt. And thanks for visiting.
Many wonderful moments of negative space enhancing the subject in your photos. The dragonfly is one of many beauties. ❤
Thanks, Olga! It was a great year for dragonflies in the garden.
Hi sue
Nice photos for the theme and my absolute favorite was the third from last – the berries – hanging causally and that amazing blue sky with white streaks from clouds
Many thanks, Yvette! I always try remember a piece of advice that I picked up once at a camera club meeting about red standing out and making a picture pop. It certainly worked in this shot.
Thanks for the tip!
Lovely images, Sue.
Thank you so much, Rupali.
Awesome clicks, Sue!
Thank you, Jyothi.
A gorgeous collection. Yes, the negative space, but also the textures in several create a beautiful surrealistic feel
Thanks, Steve. Although I had plenty of images where the empty spaces were just a blur, I tried to find a few pictures that had some kind of texture to those spaces. I’m glad you liked them.
