John,
great image but that's different than what we're talking about. Nobody owns that gull and nobody cares that you cut off the wing. In dogs, the owners care. They are the ones that buy the image.

My apologies



No need to apologize! Dog sport people typically do not care about perfect pictures, particularly the ones that don't show or breed dogs (which is definitely the majority of us). I've had people get all googly-eyed over crappy action shots from a point&shoot camera lol!

I asked the question because "I" care, and because I'm interested in what others do in similar situations. And as I'm fiddling with these cast-off images I've discovered that some of them can be used creatively in other ways, such as collages and montages.

I just wanted to comment as well...not everybody who visits this site, or posts to it from time to time, endeavours to pursue photography as a business venture. For me personally, this is a hobby. I do aspire to be "good" one day but that has nothing to do with making money...

Oh, btw...the gull shot is absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!
