Gary,
非常同意你的見解, 明顯地, 鳥攝的朋友不喜歡在鳥會post相, 我估計有以下原因.
1. 太少人參與, 回應又少, 得不到正面鼓勵.
2. 感覺上規管多. (如每個post的相片數量, 大小. 我就曾收到有鳥友電郵說我出得太多post.)
3. 分類太細, 又怕post錯位置, 不方便.
4. 在某些情況下, 真的不想透露地點, 但在此討論區, 是必須列明地點.
之前在討論區中有關鳥攝的衝突, 已清楚地看到鳥攝人仕的分化情形, 因為攝影普及後, 當中出現不少人, 有一群人是認為自己應拍到出色相片為先的, 自稱讓後世人留最好的記錄. 與另外一群自稱應以盡量減輕對大自然影響為先... 當然我自稱是後者... 心埋面真的害怕地點透露後, 會出現什麼不愉快的事情. 就如去年錦田, 在日間, 仍然有人以閃燈拍攝斑頭鵂鶹的幼鳥為例. 真怕今年他們不回來再繁殖...
老實說, 若果能分享給更多有心人, 實是好事, 心內更是滿足. 但現在最怕是"好心做壞事"....

I agree with Gary’s view. To me, the reasons why bird photographers don’t post at this Forum are:
1. Too few participants and responses, there is no positive feedback
2. There appears to be too many rules (e.g. no. of photos in one post, size of photos, I have received an email telling that I post too much)
3. The classification is so detailed that it’s easy to make errors, not convenient
4. Under some situations I don’t want to disclose the location but it is mandatory at this Forum
Previous discussions have shown clearly that bird photographers have organized into two camps: those who put photos before the birds and those who put birds before photos. Being a member of the latter I worry that bad things could happen if the location is disclosed – just last year some people used flash to photograph the Asian Barred Owlet in broad daylight at Kam Tin – and I’m afraid they won’t return to breed again.
It’s good to share the news with those who have a heart, but bad things may result from good intentions.
