IMAGES as ART
Dr Bills Images
A compendium of mainly natural history and predominately bird images taken by myself. I have where possible incorporated a scenic or artistic vista into the images – therefore a work of art rather than a straight image.
View them
at your leisure via a series of drop down menus so that you can narrow down
your selection to your requirements. I have included some lower quality images
which may be an aid to identification (and some I am having trouble in
identifying). I have allocated a ‘quality value’ out of 1,000 which will act as
a guide to my perceived quality of the image to be viewed.
The
viewable images have imbedded copyright text. I hope this does not spoil your
viewing. I have tried to keep the text away from key parts of the image. If you
particularly like an image or group of images I can create greeting cards or
8x6 framed prints either of a single image or a collage of a number of your
favourite images. See price list for more details.
How to do it Images are indexed by several criteria. There is a general grouping by type e.g bird, butterfly
, format e.g. portrait, art, action etc and by country. There follows a series of more specific criteria including three levels of identification culminating in species. There are
in addition two paramaters for species type (e.g. male female) or pose (perched, flight etc. within the selected groups There are two methods for selecting images - the first by text selections for several
key fields. All occurrences of the text will be retrieved.
This wil include descriptor data so may not be specific
e.g. selection of 'bee' will pick up bee-eater, bee orchid etc. but it is a quick way of finding things More detailed selection comprises selecting from some/all of the dropdown boxes. Selection of a particular parameter will set all subservient parametrs.
For example if Birds of prey is selected at superfam level the lower fam and subfam lists
will only include types of bird of prey, and so on. Once a parameter is set it will remain so until it is cleared to 'all' when it may be reset.
For example to change from a type of bird to butt, select 'all' in the 'type' dropdown box,
click the select box and all of the type options will reappear.
A new option may then be set and this will alter all other dropdown lists to butterfly data. Within the dropdown If you have any comments or suggestions please email me via the link below
