Post the 1 picture that you feel is the best you've got. Keep criticism to a minimum and enjoy life through someone else's eyes.

I'll start:

Manhattan Bridge

Nice pics guys! I'm in no way good at photography but I took this pic when I was bored and playing with my camera settings. I thought it was decent.

I go to california every summer and surf a bit. I love the feeling! I'd love to to do it all the time, there's nothing like it. But I'm stuck in Texas sad.gif

Why are you in arizona?

long story but the short bit is i grew up in flagstaff, left and came back in the summers to work in Grand Canyon, met my wife who is going to school here. we're presently hunting for grad schools on the coast though. you have some surf in texas, sort of. i worked in houston for a couple months and we would go down to galveston.

technically best, or personal favorite? I could probably narrow it down to five...

also, doesn't this thread already exist? huh.gif

actually, this is the first one that popped into my head when I read the OP:

I would have a hard time coming up with a favorite, and it would prolly be on film.

But, I would love to post one of my favorites. This was my 12 year old cat Kramer, with his "Summer Haircut".....


RIP Kramer

I could probably make a top 10 list

DHaut, that picture is amazing. Something I'd expect in an art gallery or something. Did you edit it other than B&W filter?

About 400 shots that day and two to show for it rolleyes.gif isn't digital photography great?

Thanks Croc - other than some work on the contrast, I pretty much just threw on the filter.

Wow. Great contrast. I, like you, will want a 30x80 on canvas when I'm rich. I also need to learn to take a good pan.

that's a render, if you took that with a camera you are plugged in to a poor quality matrix

Hey thanks, its an HDR image. 3 images put together at -2 0 +2. Av. Photomatix software and 45mins approx (low ball).

fantastic stuff from everyone. Lol who knew Nano-reef would be a my photography forum too.

I figure if we are going to be huge nerds over one expensive hobby then why not photography too.

goooooo money. (and believe me im not exactly rich)
jeremai
fwiw, I choose joshua tree. I am partial to the desert though.
DHaut
