Favorite picture of your project February 2-February 8 and Why

February 9th, 2013
Post your favorite photo of your own project from this past week to share with those that may not otherwise see it. Lets also put WHY or WHAT about it you like.
There were some really great photographs last week. It is fun to see what you like of your posts as it is not always what everyone else chooses.


There are two easy ways to add pictures on to the discussion.
The first is a full size photo: 1) Click on your favorite photo and bring up its page. 2)Look at the right side of your monitor, and go to the word SHARE (it is below tags) 3) go to the box and copy the long address 4) Come back to the discussion, and then paste.
The second is to have a smaller file size so to keep the site from getting overwhelmed. http://365project.org/discuss/general/1323/how-to-adding-an-image-in-a-discussion.
February 9th, 2013
Because of the gold created be the sun setting.
February 9th, 2013
I was so pleased with how this portrait of my sister turned out!

February 9th, 2013
Remind me of peace which we realy need in South Africa!

February 9th, 2013
Boo


I like this one because my Little Hoo and I both saw the same thing...and it gives other people the chance to see some Boo vision :-) It was fun.
February 9th, 2013
I did a waterfall series last week and this is my favorite of the series (and of the week) - it is a crop of a larger image I had posted the day before. The crop was suggested by my friend, Carole - she has a great eye!



February 9th, 2013
I had a couple I really liked this week but went with this one.

February 9th, 2013
Probably this one. A bit of a lean week, but I like the depth of field, the lush moss, and the curves.
February 9th, 2013
This one of my daughter - because the shoot was unexpected, she was amazingly cooperative, the setting sunlight was helpful and she's just beautiful in every way.
February 9th, 2013

I got this one yesterday. It reminded me of a painting w/ the snow coming down.
February 9th, 2013
Amy
No competition this week. I was SO excited to do this shot I counted down the hours at work.

February 9th, 2013
Not my Best shot ... But when I saw it ... Grabbed the First Camera ta hand ... Actually started the Project with it ... Kinda Ironic really ...
February 9th, 2013
Jim
I was happy with the way I got some nice detail in the frozen log and some nice silky water in the same image

February 9th, 2013
This one. DW and I were at the zoo and just happened to be in the right place at the right time to see a little camel love.


February 9th, 2013
This because i am learning how to use my new lens. The word of the day was chocolate; and I got a couple of faves on it.
February 9th, 2013
this was my favorite, I like his hairdo:)
February 9th, 2013
Just because it was a little bit of color on a gray and cloudy day
February 9th, 2013
Has to be this one as it made the PP - many thanks to all who helped put it there. It had been a frustrating day and all the stress dissolved in 15 mins at this location :)

February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
I love the freshness of this image.

February 9th, 2013
It's all about family.

February 9th, 2013
Ed
February 9th, 2013
Because I got the globe photo in focus, and I found a tiny bit of shade so I didn't burn my hand
February 9th, 2013
Because I don't think I've ever done an "action" shot before ;-)

February 9th, 2013
I keep studying, and they say shoot what you know. I feel I restrain myself from shooting and posting off my back deck all the time, but this boy made it a wonderful moment.......






@jannkc
February 9th, 2013
I think this is my favourite ...... was just playing and never expected to get anything like this.

February 9th, 2013
I liked the color contrast. Just a happy photo ;-)
February 9th, 2013
This! It was such a simple little shot, but I loved what it represented and now when I walk past that little heart marking my porch, I smile. :)

February 9th, 2013

Because it is a one-off view of our park under water. And I just love Poplar trees
February 9th, 2013

Because I don't really like selfies but hubby took me out late a night to get this silly shot, I suppose this week I will take a selfie in 6 feet of snow~sigh~ I miss spring
February 9th, 2013
I tried to do some drop shots lat weekend as the weather is still rotten. This was one of my favourites.
February 9th, 2013
@paula365 Fabulous shot. he is majestic.
February 9th, 2013
SAILBOAT SILHOUETTE
February 9th, 2013
Because it was chocolate day!!
February 9th, 2013
I work with teenagers ( have taught 7-12 grades for 23 years) and I love that I caught in three shots their mercurial nature; disinterest, to disbelief, to laughter. And I love the blond girl trying to hold it together :)

I really wish I knew what was on that iPhone!
View LARGE
February 9th, 2013
This one, because it's what I actually set out to take that day.
February 9th, 2013
Hahha, only have one :P


(been busy busy busy and really lazy :P)
February 9th, 2013
Lee
I don't have that share button that is in the instructions, so I hope this works....I liked the color and detail on this one.
February 9th, 2013
Lee
Well, i guess it worked!
February 9th, 2013
Carnival Parade
The kids are so beautiful!
February 9th, 2013

spent nearly an hour shooting this little one and his friend every time I would start walking away they would fly in front of me and pose, turned a run of the mill walk into something special
February 9th, 2013
This has to be it this week as I am waiting impatiently for it to flower.....
February 9th, 2013
A walk in our woods.

February 9th, 2013


This one because it is of my dog Sid who I adore, my husband in his wellies whom I also adore. Also, with the Six Nations Rugby well underway, the story fits in well with this weekends activity (mainly watching Rugby, rugby and more rugby....)
February 9th, 2013
This was my favorite because I achieved just what I was picturing. For the'portraits without people, part of Flash of Red February.

February 9th, 2013


These are the inks I've been playing with a lot lately. One of my scrapbook layouts also got commented on by the lady that makes these inks!
February 9th, 2013
Caz

I like this one, I had never seen so much ice !
February 9th, 2013
This one, because it's so darn cute :)

February 9th, 2013
I like this one because it looks like a planet in space. I was experimenting with lighting and a dark room.
February 9th, 2013
Because I am changing it up in learning about post processing, and this one is very different for me
February 9th, 2013
Just because its fun=)
February 9th, 2013
I like the colours and textures of this shot. I was really pleased with my focus and dof too.

February 9th, 2013


Ha I only have one! And a rather poor one it is at that! :)
February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
Why Not?
February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
wow... I didn't realize how good this past week was for me until it came time to pick my favorite from my project. I can't pick just one (I managed to get it narrowed down to Failed Sobriety Test, Magical Winter Day, Knock Knock Noir and this one that I'm posting on this thread because at 273 views, 84 comments and 42 faves is right up there with the upper echelon of the top 20, so as a thank you to all that faved it, I'm picking it for my favorite of my project - also because I put a lot of work in it *big grin*)
February 9th, 2013
this one... because i planned out what i wanted and it turned out pretty much like i wanted it to :)

Portrait: Abducted by Aliens

February 9th, 2013
Just wish the sun had been shining to really make those feathers sparkle
February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
Because this was created by chance

February 9th, 2013
"Fog of war":

I like it simply because, like @northy , it came out exactly as I'd hoped. It took me a few attempts to really capture what I wanted, but it was worth it.
February 9th, 2013
It was hard to decide between Incense, Snow Day, and Vacancy, but mine would have to be this one. I really like the way the colours turned out.

February 9th, 2013
The word I was looking for was 'inside-out.' The colors came out well and I like the wavy things the glass is doing.



February 9th, 2013
My favourite because I like the colours
February 9th, 2013
This was my favorite. I was just looking for a photo for the Feb2013 challenge and didn't realize I had captured it so well. So, it was a chance shot.
February 9th, 2013
This one of mine...

February 9th, 2013
"A Very Curious Bear" as it came out exactly how I had visualised!

February 9th, 2013
Here's my favourite from the last week. I like the colours (I also like the delicious chilli oil that I made from them afterwards)!

February 9th, 2013
Because I love the bright colors against the black background!

February 9th, 2013


I've been trying to work on my tones, that's why this is a fav for me plus it's a bud on my tree, I hope Spring is coming soon!
February 9th, 2013
I battle with people photography - don't like invading people's privacy and private space ... I was actually focussing on the instrument here, but the camera deviated and focussed on the hands playing the guitar instead - fleuk portrait with expression!

February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
Bev
I'm choosing this one from February 2nd because it's like a farewell photo that my camera gave me right before I dropped it and killed it. I couldn't have asked for a better camera and I go and kill it and even then, it still gave me a few great shots... Although I don't expect that it predicted its eventual demise. R.I.P. my dear M550.

February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
Have to go with this shot! Experimenting with my new DSLR gave me this really shallow dof and 13 favs, the most i've ever had :D

February 9th, 2013
Finally got a high key shot I liked.
February 9th, 2013
Because I took it for the camera settings challenge and learned something new.

February 9th, 2013
I was feeling a bit like this after a stressful week, but then enjoyed de-stressing creating the image...

February 9th, 2013
This is my fave, I just really liked (and was surprised by) the detail in this image of a small icicle hanging from a friends rusty old shed. Not mad for an Instagram shot!
February 9th, 2013
Lyn
It has to be this one. . .my "crystal". . .and although I used Photoshop to clean up the black velvet just a bit, the snowflake itself was pure and simply the way Mother Nature sent it to me!

February 9th, 2013
I love the way this one turned out:

February 9th, 2013
Similar to Lyn above, my favourite is my snowflake from this past week. I gave myself a goal of getting this shot and was happy with this one. Even sold it as a small print to a client. :)

February 9th, 2013
Part of the Flash of Red February challenge is to take "portraits without people". This shot sums up my son Christopher.
February 9th, 2013
just because this is a random re-do and i love how it turned out and the colours! :o)
February 9th, 2013
This is my fav of the week because of the personal significance it holds for me... I have a tradition of taking these pictures at the cabin and each one has come to symbolize where I'm at internally during that time.
February 9th, 2013
we had so much fun with the light painting!
February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
This is my favorite photograph this week because the little red squirrel seems to be telling a story over dinner. Or maybe he's telling me how cold it is and it wants to come inside!

February 9th, 2013
A happy accident

February 9th, 2013
Chocolate... Need I say more?
February 9th, 2013
Its my favorite self portrait :)
February 9th, 2013
I liked the intensity of little owl. Plus they're hard to spot in our area so it was a special capture.
February 9th, 2013


Fave cause I have wanted "little people" for a while an I finally bought some, stoked with the result it was my 2nd photo of this project (and this week!!) to make it to pp. I love it!
February 9th, 2013
I am a sucker for reflections and loved how this one came out. I also realized later that it made a letter"O." The shot the day before inadvertantly had a "Z" in it. These convinced me to look for and try to find the whole alphabet this year. Wanna join me? Tag your letters: alpha-2013.
February 9th, 2013
I like the depth is this shot, it looks better view large

February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
I really enjoyed making this one and loved how it turned out.
February 9th, 2013

Loved to try out studio gear for the first time :)
February 9th, 2013
John Street - Hamilton Ontario

February 9th, 2013
Made it to the PP! :) Still so overwhelmed by all the nice comments and favs! :)

February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
It is grainy, the colors are off, but I like it. This is at a House Concert and the lighting is a mix of incandescent, halogen and florescent, none of them very bright. The background is a DVD case and a sheet hanging over the TV on the wall. Not a good shooting location, but the music is good.

February 9th, 2013

Love early mornings photos, and i think i'm starting to master taking cars lights love it, any advice how to take people the same thanks
February 9th, 2013
Liked this best as it is hand-held and has lots of detail.

February 9th, 2013
" Lovebirds"
February 9th, 2013
My end of 2nd year shot, my favourite subject and the light was lovely.
February 9th, 2013

Gives me a warm feeling to see the sun peek through the tree.
February 9th, 2013
February 9th, 2013
Love the retro feeling of this picture:
Film: Lomography Tiger 110
Camera: Minolta Weathermatic-A
February 9th, 2013

February 9th, 2013
I wasn't anticipating this photo. I'd stopped to take other shots and rounder the corner of a building to see the sun starting to rise.

February 10th, 2013
Jo

I like the challenge of flight shots, and I got lucky with this one.
February 10th, 2013
Because it's pretty.

February 10th, 2013
This one - liked the shot and it was the result of a fun outing with a good friend.
February 10th, 2013
This is my fave as its the first photo taken with my new iPhone using a new app.


February 10th, 2013
The first time being involved in a get-pushed challenge :)
February 10th, 2013
Mostly because I love food and the soft tones.
February 10th, 2013


I am happy with the detail
February 10th, 2013
February 10th, 2013


because I love the colour
February 10th, 2013
Because it's something different.

February 10th, 2013
I love this one because it was a result of collaboration on here! Summerfield (Vikki) suggested I invert this pic, so I did, and posted it the next day. I like how the bark looks like thin wisps of paper peeling off.
February 10th, 2013


Am trying to take pictures of "wind" in February and on the 2nd was standing out on a frozen lake taking pictures of ice golfers so I was sure that I would get a wind shot but tournament was charity event in name of my son's best friend who died at 9 yrs old and found this yellow golf ball all by itself away from the crowd reflected in the ice. It made me think of young Fred and that became the only shot I could think of.
February 10th, 2013
Looking back on this week, I'm amazed at how much I feel like my photography and my thinking about photography have improved in the past 40 days. I'm pretty proud of this week, but I think this one's my favorite.
February 10th, 2013
The King and I
February 10th, 2013

I feel like I was seeing things a bit differently with this one and really saw it before I took the photo.
February 10th, 2013


I really like this one. Mainly because I've never done an astract-y shot before, and the other reason is because it was a happy mistake. =D
February 10th, 2013
This is my favorite pic for the week...i just love this bridge...

February 10th, 2013
I've done night time photos before and I've stitched photos together before but never combined the two. I was pleasantly surprised how well it worked.
February 10th, 2013
Mel
despite this being my most popular picture eva! it was actually a close race for my favourite this week between this and the swan, but im going with this one cause the responce to it has made me warm and fuzzy all week and i finally got a result i was happy with after 7 hours (2 nights) of experimenting :)
February 10th, 2013


a happy accident that led me to explore the funky world of bokeh!
February 10th, 2013

Just love the colours I managed to make with a little tweaking after only using my point and shoot!
February 10th, 2013
This one because it's so simple and except for a frame needed no other processing.
February 10th, 2013
This one,all my little boys together.
February 10th, 2013
Because it was the spontaneous action of my daughter getting "into" the art to create new, living art:

February 10th, 2013
This is probably my favourite from this week. A Long Tailed Tit.

February 10th, 2013
It's the quietness of this photo that I like so much. It didn't grab me until I really looked closely at it. I love everything about the barn and I like the composition.

February 10th, 2013
Was surprises a lone windsurfer was out in this "soup"
..
February 10th, 2013


This is mine just because I love his expression.
February 10th, 2013

This one I was expecting pastel colours, not this explosion of hypnotic colours
February 10th, 2013


Because I'd been thinking about the poem all day, and this shot in town on my lunchbreak really worked with the words. Loving how 365 is making me look at the world differently!
February 10th, 2013
@jannkc I really like this one because I'm working on photographing snow with flat/foggy light. Usually I wash out all the details. Thanks!
February 10th, 2013


The light was just right for capturing the detail of the feathers of this crow. As a bonus there is a tiny water droplet hanging from his beak (visible in large view on black background).
February 10th, 2013

Happy Valentine 2 U all :)
February 10th, 2013
Because what it represents is another of my favorites!

February 10th, 2013


This one - I took it months ago but I still find it haunting and I keep going back to it.
February 10th, 2013
February 10th, 2013
February 10th, 2013


Because for a quick shot I was really pleased with the results. And I got to eat it!
February 10th, 2013
February 10th, 2013
This is my favourite just because I think long tailed tits are so pretty.

February 10th, 2013
this one because it was the only one I took and its got my gorgeous boy in it :)

February 10th, 2013
1. I loved that a swan got so close to me.
2. I had never seen the underpart of a swan's beak.
3. It made the PP
February 10th, 2013
I liked the colors and shapes in this one.
February 10th, 2013
The unusual weather vane and the wonderful threatening sky.

February 11th, 2013
I like this shot because of the lighting and the tone. I didn't expect it to come out good like this at all, and what I thought would be a failed picture actually turned out to be something I liked!

February 11th, 2013
I've been wanting to get back into alternative photography for years and taking part in filmfebruary has made me do it
February 11th, 2013
this one, because I had so much fun taking it :)
February 11th, 2013
I chose this one because I had something in mind and I captured exactly what I wanted.
February 11th, 2013
I like how the icicles were hanging off of the roof and how the red roof helped brighten a dull day.

February 11th, 2013
Because if you look at it large you can see the entire flake is in focus, it's just such a translucent flake that it doesn't stand out like the thicker whiter flakes.
February 11th, 2013
I was happy and surprised I caught a fluff starting it's travels.

February 11th, 2013
This rose was so beautiful to me. Plus it was in somebody else's yard so had to get a quick shot. Didn't want to look too suspicious.
February 11th, 2013
Love the delicate structures and the focus on this ice macro.
February 11th, 2013
A rare selfie of my husband and me.
February 11th, 2013
Jo
Playing around with a mirror and the cat!


February 11th, 2013
I liked this one best and taken with my phone.

February 11th, 2013
February 11th, 2013
bad framing, too much light, horizontal lines not good BUT it made me laugh so much....imagine you enter in your kitchen and you see a pair of legs from the cupboards...
February 11th, 2013
February 11th, 2013
my first try at light painting ... had fun!

February 11th, 2013
This was my favorite photo of my project last week, because I loved what the sky was doing! Those rainbow colors were all-natural. No photoshop tricks. ;-)

February 11th, 2013
This one, because it was very difficult to have the dof and focus that I had in mind but I worked it out

February 11th, 2013
My first successful oil and water shot ~ after many attempts
February 11th, 2013
February 12th, 2013
I loved how my grandprincess ran through my shot - totally unexpected as I was focusing on the weed...made my day
February 12th, 2013
First time I've managed to capture twinkling lamps, plus this is the first piece of street photography I've taken.

February 12th, 2013
February 12th, 2013
February 12th, 2013

I like watching my son learn how to swim, this one reminded me of when I learned how to skateboard years ago...a very freeing experience.
February 12th, 2013
This is my favorite of the week, but also since I started 365 January 1. I like how simple it turned out and the little shadow at the bottom that is actually another stamen but out of focus.
February 12th, 2013
This is the first picture in my project that I know I'm going to frame.
February 12th, 2013
after many tries I like the moment I captured

February 12th, 2013

This is the most stunning photo I took this week!
February 23rd, 2013
I love the lines in my husband's face, I love how his smile is reflected in his gorgeous blue eyes. I love how the sc worked out with this picture
