I think Jann @jannkc needed someone to host this thread, but may have not gotten many repsonses so I am game this week. Please post your favorite photo of the week and tell us why it is so special to you!
This is my lastest photo to celebrate frogmato by @bobfoto...hubby and I had a ton of giggles getting this silly shot and his serious face.

I had volunteered and arranged with Jann to take it over for a little while, starting last week. I guess you missed last week's thread - I've changed the day to Sunday for the thread as it fits in better with me that way, so was going to post this thread tomorrow but you've saved me a job! I don't mind, by the way, I was just letting you know it had been sorted :)
It'll have to be this one for me as I've had a tough week starting a new job and post-grad studies, no time for photography, I'm behind on here, but this is my favourite of the few I've uploaded! (Will be catching up as soon as poss!)

no problem :) I'm in the UK so it's Sunday evening, my time, when I'll be posting the thread - I'm not sure what time that is for you. I was going to run it Monday to Sunday, starting this week with Monday 2nd to Sunday 8th but I'll start that next week. I'm just hosting this thread for 3 or 4 months as I've just gone back to university and I don't think I'll be able to carry on here after the end of the year, due to my work load! I
Love this! can't believe I have completed over 3 months of this project now and never posted a pic of my Harvey! He looks so,angelic here! just love how the black and white really captures the emotion of love!
Has to be this one. We had fun shooting it and the photo just makes me smile. That is what photography and 365 are to me right now. I don't want to take any of it too seriously!
Well - this is the only one I've posted for those dates so far - madly trying to catch up after a holiday and computer problems. This is a shot to remind me of a fabulous ten days in Croatia. This is the harbour at Cavtat.
This is not really a picture but a collage of photos that I made this week from some photos that I took a couple of weeks ago at a balloon festival. I like it because it is colorful and gives a truer picture of the event that I saw.
I was really pleased to spot this heron whilst on holiday in Switzerland last week. Herons are always so timid here in the UK and don't seem to like being photographed!
This one ... it turmed out pretty well considering that this guy was riding in front of me ... which gave me a excuse to stop the car ...and pick the camera from my seat and do quick couple of shots ...!!
It's been a swan-kind-of-week. I almost posted my photo from Sept 2 because it's funny (a goose who thinks he will grow up to be a swan) but it's not technically a very good photo (just well timed and snapped). I decided to go with this one because it had enough clarity that even the water drops on its head after taking a drink showed in the photo:
Has to be this one. I took photos at a dog trial today, and learned that photographing dogs is a WHOLE lot more DIFFICULT than photographing horses. You can't use a tripod...The dogs don't have riders, and miss obstacles, take them in the opposite direction, spin in circles, and generally race around like lunatics. The expression on this dog's face (best viewed large to get the full effect) is illustrative of this.
I feel I have had a good week this week. I'm going to go for this one of my little man and his love of these insects. There are lots of them around at this time of year in lots of different colours. Not normally a fan of SC but think it works okay here.
@roachling I am in the CT Zone in the US, that explains why I didn't see the post. I am glad you are hosting, let me know if you can't for some reason and I will try to help out!
@lisabell I love this shot, Lisabell. Feels to me like really early morning and an adventure is about to happen. And I like the star effect on the left as well. Very nice! Actually ... fav.
My Swinging Wasp has to be my favorite. As a relative "newbie" on 365, this is my first photo to make it to the Popular page. The wild flowers behind our house have been loaded with wasps lately, but this was the first time I had a good look at a wasp's face. Kind of like a cartoon character...or an alien!
I have to go with my pink flamingo...I took other shots that are like the types of shots people usually go for with the pink flamingos,but I prefer this one partly because it is unique as far as flamingos go, but also because of the focus on the eye, the lighting, the texture, the detail (you can see the veins in part of the beak), and because the portrait technique has the flamingo looking similar to Mona Lisa. (imho anway ;p)

Thank you, I will! There was another lady who posted on Jann's thread a couple of weeks ago and said she would take it over when I need to pass it on, but if she changes or mind or wants to share the job, maybe you could take it over after me! I will let you know if I can't host it one week - it's handy to have a back up. Thanks.
This is mine from yesterday. So far no views even, but I love this one . My husband was in his first "Tough Mudder" obstacle course yesterday and I captured this of him on the left, but later realized the action of the other participants in this too which was a bonus.
This was done completely on a whim as the shot I had planned to do had failed miserably... as it turned out it was probably my favourite shot of the week. -
I love this, because I actually managed to do something in Photoshop....and because the shot of Craig and me walking with Mr Toka the lion brings back so many wonderful memories
It's been fantastic weather in the UK this summer so rain has been a bit of a novelty recently. We had a short downpour followed by sun and I loved the light through the petals and the raindrops sitting on them
This candid photo of my parents is one of my all-time favorites! It's so hard to get a good picture of them because my dad is always making a goofy face at the camera! I found the secret - take it when he isn't looking! Ha ha!
Total newbie here, but thought I should start branching out into the discussion boards. So many beautiful pictures here!
This one has to be my favorite because I was having so much fun watching my kids play with the butterflies when I took it. It makes me smile when I look at it.
@juliedduncan LOL I am only filling in this week...yikes...if I had to every week, but oh how wonderful too! The photos are amazing and most never reach the PP! So many of them deserve some serious LOV'n :)
Because it's one of those images I have to keep going back to, thinking "I took that? Me? Really?" And until I got it home and processed it, I didn't think it was going to be anything particularily special!
This is my favourite from 3rd - I get a night out every week when a babysitter looks after my daughter and I go and row with friends on the Amstel river in Amsterdam. Rowing is always followed by a nice glass of wine. Always a lovely evening!

This one because it started out really boring and then.....
I was really happy with how this turned out. It is my entry for the 5+2 fairy tale challenge.
My life.

My fav little friend!

I like this photo because it reminds me of my holiday.
This. No doubt. I discovered the charm of night photography this week. :D
I fell in love with them myself. I wasn't even expecting to get them really. I totally forgot about the High aperture causing them xD
This candid photo of my parents is one of my all-time favorites! It's so hard to get a good picture of them because my dad is always making a goofy face at the camera! I found the secret - take it when he isn't looking! Ha ha!
I like this one since it marks 9 years since I started my photo-a-day project.
Because it was something a little different that I had in my head - and, I think, it worked !
I tried to look for some beauty in this beast (which is eating my whole crop) and finally nailed him by the (eye) balls :)
This one wins out because of the colour.
I love that shot, Julie, not sure how I missed it.
I had been hoping I'd get one eventually and sure enough I did! Plus he was so curious which was a great added bonus.
This one has to be my favorite because I was having so much fun watching my kids play with the butterflies when I took it. It makes me smile when I look at it.
I'm heading off on safari in December so this was just a teaser! I'm excited.
