Gallery: Happy Accidents (Photo Quest November 2021)
The theme for our Photo Quest in November 2021 was “Happy Accidents” — we asked our members to find an image in their archive where something had gone wrong that changed the photo they originally intended to make, in an unexpected and transformative way so much that they decided to keep the photo.
The gallery below contains the submissions that our members sent in. As usual, thanks a lot for everyone who took part and went through their archives to send in a photo!
Due to our submission requirements, only photos that were submitted as JPEG files using sRGB color space have been considered.

Dan Bucko – Unhappy Sierra Fires Create Happy Accidental Sunset
Dana Smith – Forest Zoom
Erica Miller: While photographing this other worldly agave plants , an “IFO” photo-bombed the scene.
