Default What picture are you most proud of???

I may not be putting this thread in the proper section so please move it if im wrong to put it here.

So being interested in how peoples passion for photography started, i got lots of wonderful replies and now that got me thinking and im just as interested to see this - if you could pick only ONE (1) photo you are most proud of, what would it be?

Then looking upwards, I strain my eyes -

I love everything about this self-portrait I did a few weeks ago

This one is probably my favorite because I like the story it tells, but there are a couple others that people think are pretty good.

Quiet Reflections v3

By the way enzee that shot of your is great.

Great post....and a very difficult decision that is subject to change. As an avid waterman and photographer, this would be one of the shots that I am proud of because of the work that went into capturing it.

This is my absolute favorite photo that I have ever taken. Our Bijon/Shitzu mix was running at the local dog park and I was shooting in burst mode.

Great idea for a thread.

Backstroke

This one, for 2 reasons: (1) it reminds me that I've progressed from shooting into the sun and taking snapshots from the side of the pool; and (2) more importantly, it's my daughter, and she likes it.

Default My favorite photo...

Blue Angels


would be this one (at least for now). I was shooting in continuous mode as the Blue Angels flew overhead during a local air show. The alignment of these jets allows you to see the writing on them, along with the numbers on their vertical stabilizer. I was also pleased with being able to see the jet stream.

I was so pleased with the outcome of this photograph, that I framed it and it is hanging on the wall in my office.

The one I am going to take tomorrow is accurate for me. Mine changes with each time I shoot, as I think my skill is ever improving.

I'm getting better at portraits, but have a long ways to go. Thus far I'm torn between three.

My Double strike.

Coco Beach Double Strike

The one of my Mother-in-law's Great Dane

Angus

Or the one of our new puppy.

Birthday Puppy

With that in mind, I've signed up for Model Mayhem, and just waiting for my profile to be approved. When it is, I'm going to start seeing about arranging some different shoots at different locations since I don't have a studio.
