Favorite picture of your project January 12-18 and Why

January 21st, 2013
Sorry- forgot to post this yesterday- thanks to Jeff Walker for the reminder.
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.
January 21st, 2013
Just cuz it was warm and fuzzy.
January 21st, 2013


Because I'm so new to all of this and I was able to achieve the details and bokeh that I had wanted
January 21st, 2013
This one because it made the most of a very dreary day.
January 21st, 2013


This was my favorite, because I have been thinking about it for a while, and took the time to set up the shot and edit it.
January 21st, 2013
This is outside my office and I just think when it is snow covered, it is lovely. and because a fellow 365er said it was magical! :)
January 21st, 2013
This one because we rarely get snow and blue skies in the UK!
January 21st, 2013
Because I had to work to get it and it turned out well!
January 21st, 2013
Because it's an image from the first roll of color film I've ever self-developed.

January 21st, 2013
@musicguy1982 love this!
January 21st, 2013
As it is film had to visualise, there is no LCD on back of camera. Was only one shot, and took as my interpretation of Dupain's famous photo. Loved the colour outcome
January 21st, 2013
Because this was the last shot I took of the hummingbirds in my garden before I moved from the house I had lived in for the past 12 years, plus I loved how the sun was flashing on this little guy's throat feathers. It was much more impressive in person though!
January 21st, 2013
It's "The Hambone" which has turned into a running joke on 365. And I think the focus turned out well and I love the black and white.
January 21st, 2013
Tops for me because I finally went to the lake and the wind wasn't blowing 90 miles an hour.

January 21st, 2013

Frost and a Curl...because it was just a magical day.
January 21st, 2013
because of 2 words: Red Barn :) But also because of the PoV (I crouched down and shot upward to make it feel larger than life)
January 21st, 2013
I loved the light.
January 21st, 2013
Because he is so handsome and happy :)
January 21st, 2013
A hard choice between this and my shot from the day before. Overall a pretty good week :)
January 21st, 2013


Because it was an unexpected shot....behind the grocery store.....and turned out that I liked it the best of what I took that week. :)
January 21st, 2013
@mmartin Precious!
January 21st, 2013
this bus was hidden behind a bowling alley..was good fortune to find this and get a shot or two:
January 21st, 2013
I like the combination of the way the subject was focused on the computer screen, and the way the sweet spot focused the attention on the subject.

January 21st, 2013
Just because I liked it. and I did it manual not on auto...................

January 21st, 2013
I just like the low contrast and lack of color...
What I didn't like was how cold it was outside...
(iPhone)

January 21st, 2013
First I was happy that he sat there long enough for me to get the shot, and I really liked the detail of his softness.

January 21st, 2013
this one for sure... all that yummy mist, plus i got the guy in there... plus i shot in RAW (taking my second run at it) and kind of felt like i had some control - and liked the result :)

January 21st, 2013
I liked the details of her face and the angle I took it at.
January 21st, 2013
Fun shot to do
January 21st, 2013


because of the combination of colours, variety of birds, ducks and swans, and the fact that it is also a landscape picture
January 21st, 2013
I think it has to be this one. I have others that I worked hard to get and that I like but I think this one jumped out at me when I went to look :)
January 21st, 2013
@grizzlysghost - awesome!
January 21st, 2013
I love the tones :)

January 21st, 2013
Probably this one. It was taken on a photo outing with a group from my photography club, so the camaraderie was nice. As for the photo itself, I like the reflections of the lights on the furniture, and the absolute emptiness of the chairs and landscape despite the claim of "99 Billion Sold."
January 21st, 2013
This one, because it turned out better than I had expected when I was shooting it:

January 21st, 2013
@k1w1 I just love it! Want a framed version for my wall!
January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
I am not usually an abstract or effect type of person but just loved the perspective of my egg basket as it looks huge :)
January 21st, 2013
because this was the split second shot from when they touched beaks and formed a heart reflection on the water (which obviously i didn't catch) and a reminder of that missed opportunity
January 21st, 2013


I in no way have such dynamic photos as the ones I'm seeing here (you guys wow me!)... But I like how this photo just happened organically.

It is a filler shot, taken before posted, but for a reason. Charlie has been missing for over a week now. We miss him dearly and are quite worried. But we're not losing hope!
January 21st, 2013
This was my favorite this week because it's very different from what I normally do, and I was happy with how it turned out.

January 21st, 2013
@kelkel Thanks. That's such an awesome comment!!!
January 21st, 2013
Because I actually had an idea before taking the picture and wasn't just shooting randomly! I also liked the fact that I attempted shooting still life which I haven't tried before. There's a first time for everything!

January 21st, 2013
This is my shot from the 16th. I was happy with it because I didn't have to do a lot of clean-up in post processing. It also conveys the idea of "clean" to me--must be because of the water and white background.

January 21st, 2013

Mine is this for the simplicity of it!
January 21st, 2013
Because it has 116 Favs and counting:

January 21st, 2013

i love this--it represent something precious and that is time...
January 21st, 2013
I like what the funky edit did to her eye color.
January 21st, 2013
I had a fairly good photography week. I have been working on getting scenic shots and doing B & W shots. I shot this one while traveling in a car. I was happy with how this photo turned out.

January 21st, 2013
I shot the photo of this bird through my window. I like the detail of the feathers, the colors and the way the angle of the tree limbs is repeated by the posture of the Varied Thrush.
January 21st, 2013
just because I'm a sucker for bokeh...

January 21st, 2013
I like photos that tell a story (and I like photos of trees, snow and barns, too!) and this one does just that.
January 21st, 2013
Because it's the first time I've used Photoshop in any great detail and it worked!
January 21st, 2013
I really liked all of my bed jumping shots, but I'll go with this one as it got so much attention :)
January 21st, 2013
Hard to choose between two this week. I liked them both because they were long exposures.
January 21st, 2013
This was my favorite because I caught the goose just landing on the water...

January 21st, 2013
The morning was perfect, the light was perfect, and I was lucky enough to recognize it........


@jannkc

@tammeray

I often read your comments about not being as good as others... this photo proves quite the opposite. Great shot!
January 21st, 2013
AC
@archaeofrog

Nice lighting; like that it's in B&W!
January 21st, 2013
Took this last week when Niners beat Green Bay and now we are headed to the Superbowl . My dog was a good sport in this...

January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
AC
@cottoncandy

Very nice... simply beautiful!
January 21st, 2013
I really liked the power lines in this.

January 21st, 2013
@3rdxoff thank you so much AC!
January 21st, 2013
@3rdxoff thanks :)
January 21st, 2013
This one cause I happen to think my nephews are the neatest thing since sliced bread :)
January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013

Because it was my first time attempting to capture individual snowflakes and I had a greater degree of success than I had expected. I also love the fact I managed to enhance the appearance of the image while making some adjustments in ACR, you can actually tell these flakes are crystals.
January 21st, 2013


I just like this one. Thought it was a good one for the theme of PLAY.
January 21st, 2013
Was going to post my dew drops especially after the great comments but I was so excited about capturing this one with fish in mouth and the water skips

January 21st, 2013
AC
Although "Flock of Seagulls" received accolades, I really liked this shot. I grew up with Classic Pooh stories, books, and stuffed animals; I couldn't wait for this daily theme! I really liked how the angle and colors turned out.

January 21st, 2013
I am really getting into minimalism and that is one thing I love about this photo. The other is that the photo itself looks dirty which is a bit ironic with the subject matter (a broom)

January 21st, 2013
Bev
I'd love to do 2 because I have 2 favorites for this week...

This one because it's rare that you have fog in January here in snow country so it makes for a great winter shot with a fall feel to it:



And this one because this is the very next day and the temperatures were in the 50s and I went to get my mail in a t-shirt, whereas the day before when I took the shot of Winter Fog, I was in a jacket, scarf and hat. I just happened to bring my camera with me and looked up and saw the most beautiful clouds formed in the sky all at the same time that I'd ever seen:

January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
I liked this one because I finally made friends with my external flash and also because it is SOOC :)

January 21st, 2013


Love my goofy girl hehe
January 21st, 2013
I was pleased with the various textures that showed in this photo...making it my favorite for the week. :-)

January 21st, 2013
becos it makes me smile....
January 21st, 2013
Just makes me smile every time I look at this one :-)
January 21st, 2013
This is my favourite because I rarely do black & white and I love this kid to bits.


January 21st, 2013
I really liked the focus on this one and @michaelelliott fav'd it :)

January 21st, 2013
I just love this shot & it makes me giggle every time I look at it:

January 21st, 2013
I like the mood of this one- that you have to search a little for what's going on. Also, the subject matter is obviously something we can all relate to :)
January 21st, 2013
I photographed this mansion last year and did a return visit for my alphabet series. This time I did it from a completely different angle. I was happy with how it turned out.
January 21st, 2013
I just love the smoothness of the water, the splash and reflections.

January 21st, 2013
because the lake was glass for once

January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
Seattle set a Guinness World Record for the largest snowball fight. They had to truck in over 30 dump truck loads of snow since we don't have any in the city.

January 21st, 2013
Mel


I was pleased with this - liked the colours in the water and it's sort of 'painterly' quality. It was an image I liked more the more I looked at it.
January 21st, 2013
I finally visited Schwaibisch Hall. A darling village I have wanted to photograph for a while.

January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
This photo was one of those "surprise" uploads, that was when I saw myself and the Kea in the same shot!
January 21st, 2013
This is mine, so cold, but so warm :-)

January 21st, 2013
This one! =)))
Because this reminds me of our great walk with mum and Roxa to the field, and because Roxas panda-face is just priceless here =))

January 21st, 2013
Just because it came out a lot better than I thought it would, although the colours are round the wrong way?
January 21st, 2013
I'm enjoying Macros at the moment and I liked this old seed head up close
January 21st, 2013
Mel
Because I inherited it from my Nan and its cool :)
January 21st, 2013
Because it is one of my Best shots and i put it in wrong album ...
January 21st, 2013
Caterpillar Kisses
Why? Because I'm obsessed with these fascinating creatures and it was a moment I was happy to see -- much less snap!
January 21st, 2013
Ready for a dinner out

January 21st, 2013
I like this one cos of the softness :)

January 21st, 2013
Amy
I took this one before work one day last week. It was the most stunning frosty snow day, i would have given my right arm to be out taking pictures instead of being stuck in the office!

January 21st, 2013
I had a few I really liked this week but I chose this one because it makes me laugh and because I was amazed that I got the shot!

January 21st, 2013
I really like my photos of this week, so it was a though choice, but I decided to go for a snowshot wince thats whats been around for the whole week :)

January 21st, 2013
Because I had been waiting to take this shot for months and finally the light was right ...

January 21st, 2013
Ed


Photo shoot for a friend's band, and they were really receptive to ideas. This one came out exactly as I had hoped.
January 21st, 2013


For some reason the white peacocks never seem to be with the coloured peacocks whenever we visit the park but on this day they were happily side-by-side.
January 21st, 2013
Each time I look at this the expresion makes me smile, also thank you to everyone for faving it, it's jumped to my top rated photo!

January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
I choose this one as it really epitomises life here at the moment. We are forecast up to a foot and a half more snow today. http://365project.org/julieco/365/2013-01-14
January 21st, 2013
Oops! I really should know how to do this by now...
January 21st, 2013
This is my favorite of the week because of the rich color and soft petals.

January 21st, 2013
I waited a long time to get this little guy in just the right spot:

January 21st, 2013
This one, simply because I love my foxes :)

January 21st, 2013
This one for me :)
January 21st, 2013
I did a walk in the woods series last week and this one is my favorite:

January 21st, 2013
This one because it got the most faves of my project so far! Yeah, a whopping 11, LOL.....
January 21st, 2013
Jim
January 21st, 2013
@edpartridge LOVE it!
January 21st, 2013
This one for sure. One of my all time favorites of my own! I just love the feel of it.



I also reaaally like the one @emmar84 posted - as well as a bunch more!
January 21st, 2013
ooh a tough choice for me this week with snow and lovely rocky landscapes to choose from but I'm going for this one as I love the bleak moors :)

January 21st, 2013
I have a few I liked (obviously, since I posted them), but I'll choose this one first of all because it did not get any comment (I can deal with that) and secondly because I do love the softness of that landscape..
January 21st, 2013
Probabyl this one, St Peter's Church Morristown NJ. It was one of the more challenging to get together, and I am pleased with the result.
January 21st, 2013
It would have to be this one - my most popular photo to date by far...
January 21st, 2013
Jo
I would prefer to take street shots, but due to the freezing weather, have had to hunt around for things indoors, which has made me look at things differently and start using macro
January 21st, 2013
I was really happy with this one in the end! I know it' not much... But it was tasty!
January 21st, 2013
This is my favourite, but it makes me crave brownies and chocolate when I look at it!

January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013
I had a hard time choosing my favorite, but I'm gonna go this one. Why? I love the setting, the setting and atmosphere.

January 21st, 2013
I picked this photo, because it challenged me to solve my problem...to take a photo of the sun that could be seen.
January 21st, 2013
AC
@skipt07 Absolutely one of my favorites, too!
January 21st, 2013
AC
@amyamoeba
Great shot! I love the lines and contrast!
January 21st, 2013
My daughter
January 21st, 2013
The last morning of my honeymoon, we were unable to sleep and watched the sunrise from our balcony together.

January 21st, 2013
I like this zoom effect.
January 21st, 2013
Just look at those colors and the low, very low fog. That's why. ;-)

January 21st, 2013
Here's mine... and I love it because it's a fun shot.. I enjoyed putting it together, and it helped teach me some new editing tricks!!!
(And the amazing response I've had to it has really made me happy with it!!!)

January 21st, 2013
This is my favourite ...... she is just a little cutie :)

January 21st, 2013
Jen
This one because you have to look hard..
January 21st, 2013
Just love the colors of this one!
January 21st, 2013
This one, because something positive came out of an otherwise crappy day :)

January 21st, 2013
January 21st, 2013


Because I haven't done a selfie in ages! :)
January 21st, 2013
No particular reason, I just like it.

January 21st, 2013
I think maybe his one:

January 21st, 2013
I really appreciate the light these winter days
January 22nd, 2013
Although not the best photo my week, it's my favorite because he took off for 5 months abroad after this shot was taken.

January 22nd, 2013
I always love other peoples mist shots so much. I was pretty happy to have one turn out for myself.
January 22nd, 2013

This shot as I had wanted to try it for a while. I think it's a bit too light though.
January 22nd, 2013
Can't believe i was able to capture these snowflakes with my 50 mm
January 22nd, 2013


This is my favourite because it the result of my first foray with snapseed. I really like the effect.
January 22nd, 2013
This would mine. I missed a lot of days but am happy with this one

January 22nd, 2013
I was happy with how the ordinary in my house turned out, plus it is one of my first with my new 50mm. I am struggling with the cold weather, lack of natural light, and finding inspiration in the house.

January 22nd, 2013
I like how the light and lines played together in this one:
January 22nd, 2013
I liked that the way I laid the spoon out made them into dragon scales.

January 22nd, 2013
@hollandcrew Fabulous capture!
January 22nd, 2013
@jsw0109 Great shot and composition!
January 22nd, 2013
@pamfromcalgary thank you!!
January 22nd, 2013
This is my fave, because I just love the stillness it evokes...
January 22nd, 2013
This picture is a reminder of a fun-filed day at the beach with great friends!

January 22nd, 2013
because his smile makes me smile.
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013
it would appear that I am in the minority on this one...very little love for this photo, but it is my Fave for the week

January 22nd, 2013
Must be this one
January 22nd, 2013


This is mine. It was a toss up between this and my low key portrait, as they both took me ages to work out the lighting, but I think this is more appropriate given all the snow we've had this week. :) A nice warming cup of tea.
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013


I thought this looked just as it would have been captured in an Edwarian postcard and was very pleased with the sepia effect.
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013

this simple shot worked out well for me
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013
My favourite was an indoor shot of a handmade glass vase from Tallinn, I was pleased with the lighting:
January 22nd, 2013
This is my favorite this week. Like the colours and flowing lines in this one. Got a few positive comments and favs for it too which is always lovely.
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013
I developed my own film at home for the first time in 20ish years.
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013
January 22nd, 2013
I was quite proud of how this one came out. The light this day was really great to work with!

January 22nd, 2013
Somehow made the PP this week - but not with this which was a quick snap and is my favourite of the week

January 23rd, 2013
Recycled copper from computer parts, hand cut into hearts with patina finish. What a fun project!
January 23rd, 2013
This one—because while I took it just because I liked the play between symmetry and asymmetry, I got a whole new perspective on it when I solicited a title on FaceBook. Thanks to a friend, it's now called "Logs in Love"—even though that wasn't my original intent.
January 23rd, 2013
This one. It was taken at a Celebration of Life for my uncle.

January 23rd, 2013


This one. Definitely. It was a rather good day for me, and I was wondering down an alley in the Downtown area of town. I looked back over my shoulder and BAM. It was one of those ideas that knocks you back a bit. I HAD to take it. Honestly, I didn't get as sharp an angle as I would have wanted. But, I still really like the moon being framed by the power lines.
January 23rd, 2013
Because it's my sweet girl getting ready for her concert... and I love the excited/nervous look on her face here.

January 23rd, 2013
I'm a bird lover and am always happy when I catch one.
January 23rd, 2013
Caz
This one, it's something I always wanted to try
January 23rd, 2013
Was happy to try a different perspective in this shot
January 23rd, 2013
January 23rd, 2013

love it--- because it was so happy to SEA you all--just look at her smile closely.:)
January 23rd, 2013


Two hours walking in a blizzard and I came across these Canada Geese - so well organised in a line!!
January 23rd, 2013
I liked this one best because it added some nice color to my bleak project and I liked the funky focus.
January 23rd, 2013
Probably this one as I tend to be nervous taking pictures of people. I felt pretty confident when I took this one so maybe I'm starting to lose that bit of nervousness.


January 23rd, 2013

This one of my daughter because it was such a pure and natural moment.
January 23rd, 2013
I like how surreal the picture looks because of the painting in the background.

January 23rd, 2013
This was my first shot to start 365 on Jan. 12, it has received the most attention so far from others and I like it quite a bit too.
January 23rd, 2013


Because it looks so dreary, as the day was, and almost like a black and white - but the taillights are in color.
January 23rd, 2013
Easily this one. Her very first time in the snow and she was just totally amazed by it.
January 23rd, 2013

January 24th, 2013
January 24th, 2013
Chose this photo as it way exceeded my expectations - a few wooden figures lit by a torch!
