So here it is again, the popular weekly photo highlights!

To begin this thread here's my favourite from between these dates (taken on 16 September):
It's hard to choose this week because they are my vacation photos and I really like all of them. So I've narrowed it down to this one. I managed to get some bokehs with this one.
I always love seeing what everyone's personal favorites are. As usual, lots of amazing shots in here! I don't think I had a very good week photographically, but I ended up being torn between yesterday's shot and this one:
This was my choice:) The cloudy sky contrasts with the joy of the colors. Mexico is celebrating the bicennential of its Independence and the centennial of its Revolution. So join us in the Happy-Bdays!
This here, because portraiture is what I do, and what connects me best with a picture. When I took this I was just giving the subject a bit of an intro to photography (she is considering her future, and was asking about it), so I was just sitting at my desk when I said, "Sit there, and face the door." I directed her to turn her head slightly, and took one shot. And there it was - exactly what I'd seen in my head before I picked up the camera. For me, this is penultimate - it took a long time to get to the point where I could do that, and so this one makes me smile, because it reminds me that I know who I am as a photographer now.
Well, that was probably a horrific explanation. ;)
There are so many beautiful pictures on this thread. For me, this one is my favorite, because I thought of it first, and then was able to create it, instead of seeing something that was already there to capture. It is a view of my sun dappled yard through the curtain.
This is my fave - I only took it as a last minute ideas because I had taken some other shots that day and my memory card stuffed up and I lost them all!! everything happens for a reason I guess!! I thought a good one for the theme of "Lines" and something different....
for me it has been one of the best weeks since I arrived in Patagonia more than 6 months ago, so I had a difficult time chosing because each photo is a document of a special day, but I chose this one because I so rarely take photos of people's faces. Plus the little girl was just tooooooo cute for words. I love this thread every week and seeing what each 365er likes about his-her own work.
Here's my fav...b/c finding this shot was a happy accident that I never would have seen if I didn't push myself to get out of the house while I wasn't feeling well!
This was a good moment for us. She is always willing at any time on any day to stop what she's doing and pose for me. The heart & body of a child and the mind of someone far older. I think I'm in for some trouble in a few years...after all, she's my kid :)
Here's mine from the week... several that I like a lot, but I love this one because it includes 2 of my favorite things to photograph - sunsets, and my kids!
Not my best of the week, but my favourite because it was such a fun moment. I actually submitted this shot to the Jone's Soda site and got a "Staff Pick" on it, so it will likely end up on a Jone's Soda lable...
i wasn't really in love with any of my photos this week (though i do love some of my subjects). i went with this because it was the closest to what i was trying to achieve.
Tweets ahoy!

I didn't really like these shots on their own, but together, they're kinda alright :)
Here's mine.
The first fall colors

this is my fave from last week...it was taken saturday 9/18 at the magic kingdom in disney world....with my p&s with no editing....
It was a tossup between this one and my water drop photo. I love how this one turned out and I'm sad that the butterfly season is over.
But the narcissist in me likes my new self-portrait (seen in my avatar.) Artist wins.
or.. maybe this one..
i am not sure really aha
I know right.. I just can't choose.
Or maybe I'm just too lazy :)
makes me happy just looking at her...
I just wish I knew what this is...

Dull inspiration this week, so this was probably my highlight:

How the heck do you put the picture on here?
I thought it was a pic of someone else...Doh!
Ok one of mine. I'll go with this one:
Emotionally :
i enjoyed shooting in this place.......
I'm really glad I took this photo, it was my last of the day and I got an amazing response.
I mean, c'mon, it is Ronald McDonald. How could it not be my favorite for the week?
