Favorite picture of your project May 4-10 and Why

May 11th, 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.

I enjoyed finding reflections to flip
May 11th, 2013
I find it so hard to get insects in focus. I was pretty happy with this one
May 11th, 2013

Here is mine, playing with dof and liked this one!
May 11th, 2013


I've really struggled to take any decent photos lately and thought I'd lost my mojo. When I took this yesterday it looked fairly average but I'm happy with the way I edited it to add an extra level of interest.
May 11th, 2013
Right place, right time. Very happy.
May 11th, 2013
It would have to be this one because I like the light in it and the ways it illuminates the dandelions and dust.
May 11th, 2013
Amy
Going to have to be these two blue eyes this week!

May 11th, 2013
I liked this one just because it is something a little different for me.
May 11th, 2013
I saw a ballerina when I saw this rose bud. I was able to process this image to enhance the ballerina image.

May 11th, 2013
I had no idea what I would end up with here, just playing with mixing different shots for the uelsmann artist challenge and I think it turned out pretty good in the end.
May 11th, 2013
I've been matching my images to popular song titles for the last three weeks, which is a whole lot of work, but also a whole lot of fun. This one really moved me, both the image and the song:

May 11th, 2013
not even really sure why...the colors?
May 11th, 2013
I love how this image turned out, exactly as I thought it would and something different to the jeans and flower shots that have been appearing over the past few weeks

May 11th, 2013
Just a memory of a happy afternoon in a beautiful place that isn't open regularly, but is one of my favourites. Also, I like the mixture of traditional antique with comfy modern.

May 11th, 2013
Trilliums only appear for a short while but they are so beautiful...love the light in this shot.

May 11th, 2013

Love the texture, color and that fact that this bowl was my great-grandmas
May 11th, 2013
Well, I had better pictures than this, even one that was on the PP awhile ( Curbing My Enthusiasm- water puddle shot) but this one was the most fun to take...and very different for me. I usually shoot nature pics and bug macros
May 11th, 2013
My first close up of dogs face. I like the way it turned out.
May 11th, 2013
Cos I just love night shots in Venice
May 11th, 2013
We went on an early morning walk up the hill, I love his smile.
May 11th, 2013
LOVE MY POND FRIENDS!!!

May 11th, 2013
This was out of my comfort zone in more ways than one

May 11th, 2013
Mine has to be this one because I fell it is possibly the best shot I have ever taken.


Best Viewed : MASSIVE!
May 11th, 2013
probably this as it was my first real attempt at a bug shot, and i was pretty happy with it.

May 11th, 2013
Stumbled upon dozens of turtles sunning themselves on logs in a pond. Not something you see every day in Wisconsin, USA.

May 11th, 2013
Nothing comes close to this shot. So proud of her, I can't wipe the smile off my face.

May 11th, 2013
I'd have to say my shot of this barn and the flowering tree.
May 11th, 2013
I like the lines of this one.
May 11th, 2013
I'm trying to master macro and cropping with my little hand-held point-and-shoot . . . I'm amazed at how close you can get and still have details intact.

May 11th, 2013
A local view that I love.
May 11th, 2013
This one, because I liked the shadows on the footbridge and the kids (there's actually two of them) sitting there were a huge bonus:).
May 11th, 2013
love the landscape view of all the piers
May 11th, 2013
May 11th, 2013
I dropped my Nikon that I've had for 28 years but the iphone came to rescue. Thankfully my camera has been fixed
May 11th, 2013
I was really surprised how well this one turned out. I love the colours.
May 11th, 2013
This one because it has a magical look to it and different than most of my pics.

May 11th, 2013
This because I thought I captured the essence of this area nicely. - looks a little like a postcard. (which can be a good and a bad thing, I suppose.)
May 11th, 2013
Ed
@amyamoeba Did the blue eyes... I have the pink tongue covered for this week.

May 11th, 2013
I think I'm going to go with this one just because it was such a cool discovery - I didn't think barns like this one existed. I've seen round barns, traditionally shaped barns, etc... but never one with so many sides....
May 11th, 2013
This was my favorite because it featured something new around town: free public libraries.

May 11th, 2013


The overall color in the composition along with the pose, and sharpness of the subject is most appealing to me.
May 11th, 2013
Definitely this one! I was totally not expecting to find these guys.
May 11th, 2013
Boo


Because at times there is nothing better than a bit of John Cleese to make you smile :-)
May 11th, 2013
I like this as it reminds me of the warmth of May Day in Kingston on Thames and this chap makes me smile!


May 11th, 2013
This is my favorite because he was only a few cm from my lenses:

May 11th, 2013
This one if my favourite this week. They were very patient with me.

May 11th, 2013
I've been working on light and shutter speed to capture that ever elusive bird photo (with not much success), so I was pleased to have a great day, my AI servo in place, and the right light.
May 11th, 2013
This one because I like the combination

May 11th, 2013
I love ethereal feeling photos. This one I took is of a very tiny skinny caterpillar we found in the backyard. He will be significantly larger very soon.

May 11th, 2013
Amy


because I got to use my Holga for the first time in too long and I got to develop and print the photos myself - plus I had a lot of fun on the shoot!
May 11th, 2013
I like this pic of Nico - my daughter's new dog who I met for the first time on 10 May. He's got such a sweet face and he was quite pleased to pose for me. he's just so lovely and very obedient.

May 11th, 2013
This one I think, because I had to do a lot to get the shot in incredibly poor light without a tripod allowed, and only a non Optically Stabilized standard lens, fortunately f/1.8. Then post shoot, get rid of the huge amout of noise with the consequent ISO 6400, spruce up the colors and jiggle with the WB as shot. Surprisingly (happily) only a miniscule amount of isolated edge softening showed up throughout the frame after all that, even with f/1.8.

May 11th, 2013
I liked the shadows, light and scene. It was one of those places that I drove by moaned and had to turn around for the photo:).
May 11th, 2013


Because it shows Spring has finally arrived - it's been a long time acoming this year!
May 11th, 2013
This is my favourite shot, cause I managed to capture the picture in my head!!! :)

May 11th, 2013
I would have to say this one, because I used paint on this shot. I found I had to keep watering it down to get the right opacity to make the crown. I have tried it with water and ink on previous shots lol : )

May 11th, 2013
Pea
This is my fave of the week. I wasn't entirely happy with the comp and have changed slightly since posting this but I AM really happy with the colours and how clearly the seeds have come out

May 11th, 2013

for the quality of the light.
we've been starved of sun for so long.
May 11th, 2013
@frankhymus Great job.
May 11th, 2013
@jannkc very nice,
May 11th, 2013

Are they sharing the latest gossip there?
May 11th, 2013
I was actually happy with some of my shots this last week. But it has to be this one, since small is beautiful
May 11th, 2013


Because I loved the softness and delicacy of this sooc.
May 12th, 2013
I chose this picture because it was so fun! Was able to take a mundane scene and see an element that I could play with and then actually have it come out decent like. Has been a great learning experience here with so many supportive and friendly folks to participate with!

May 12th, 2013
I love photographing nature and strive to get the perfect one
May 12th, 2013
This one, because I walked around the park and saw beauty.

May 12th, 2013

I love the reflections and moment
May 12th, 2013
I like it because it wasn't planned when we stopped to watch the sunset and getting my two to stand still for more than two seconds is impossible.

May 12th, 2013
I love taking shots of my kitty. She is so photogenic and I never know what I'm going to get.
May 12th, 2013
For just dam right weirdness (read the description) its this one

May 12th, 2013
Because I came on this out of the blue when I found myself where I hadn't expected to be. That and sun rays always make me happy.

May 12th, 2013
Because when interesting things are all around you, sometimes you just need to look up.

May 12th, 2013
I loved the rays of the sun

May 12th, 2013
I have taken several folk musician shots the last few years. This young lady had a great natural form as she played. One of my favorites.

May 12th, 2013
Loved turning a boring picture into my favourite of the week.

May 12th, 2013
@jannkc Hi Jan. Just an observation. In your introduction you talk about a "smaller" file size to save sapce on the web server. Since the "big" one on this page is only an HTML reference to something already uploaded, I don't think it has any effect on server capacity. I believe.
May 12th, 2013
This is my favorite because I believe that is truly a gift

May 12th, 2013


I love the lines and the red life preserver
May 12th, 2013


Super narcissistic, but it's this one. I made the Cover-up I'm wearing and I'm super proud of it. :3
May 12th, 2013


This sums up our season here for me and I loved the light coming through the trees :)
May 12th, 2013


my first time capturing stars. feedbacks welcome! :D
May 12th, 2013


I like the memory of the walk, the calmness of the evening after the heavy rain, having the beach to ourselves...
May 12th, 2013
This is my favorite because of the beauty of the moment. I was honored to be allowed to share in this moment of birth in my friend's barn.
May 12th, 2013

This one because it's been on my bucket list fora while, tried it a few times but this is the first time I've been happy with the sky.

May 12th, 2013
This is my favourite because I think it looks natural a reflects my sons predicament at the moment. H has a broken leg, and is pretty much restricted as to what he can do, so he is embracing the 365 project. This is a challenge in itself as he can really only take pictures from the car window or not far from the car if the ground is not to uneven. This was him at a local aerodrome taking a picture of a plane landing.
May 12th, 2013
May 12th, 2013
Lonely and forgotten? Perhaps a little cared for corner battling against encroaching nature. Who knows, but I loved the overgrown loneliness of this single gravestone tucked in the corner of Powick Graveyard...

May 12th, 2013
This was a great time. I was in a good position to capture many shots of the aeronautical display at Wings over Illawarra air show :)

May 12th, 2013
I particularly liked this one: wasn't anything special in colour, but the B&W version is much better, it brings out the shapes and textures

May 12th, 2013
This was an experiment that turned out to have an unexpected property (at least to my eye). People generally do selective colour, or colour popping in their image processing; for this shot I decided to use selective monochrome to try to highlight the subject from the background. Viewed large, though, there seems to be a kind of 3D effect going on here. Or is it just me?

May 12th, 2013
I liked the low evening light and the capture of the outstretched fingers
May 12th, 2013
Amy


Hope this works. I liked how I captured the water droplets of my favourite flower
May 12th, 2013

This one, because it was my first successful long exposure shot, so it really was quite an accomplishment for me.
May 12th, 2013
I was so happy that other's liked this photo too...
May 12th, 2013
I really liked the way this came out :)
May 12th, 2013
It captured a lovely sunny evening sipping wine with my wife whilst watching the sun go down. You have visit my site to see the sunset :)
May 12th, 2013
Hmmmm - looking back my week wasn't very inspired - but I like this guy - he made me laugh:
May 12th, 2013
Has to be this one...
May 12th, 2013
This is my favourite picture of the week because it really reflects the mood of the woodland, its as if its saying 'please don't disturb' with the sign saying 'private woodland' I also like the way the bluebells fade out in the distance, it makes it much more colourful.
May 12th, 2013
This one because I created what I wanted!

May 12th, 2013
I had never shot ink before and thanks to my get pushed partner for my weeks challenge I got to play with it! Sooooo much fun
May 12th, 2013
Just love the lighting and feel of this one =)
May 12th, 2013
Because I love lily of the valley and because it evoked similar memories for several of my friends on 365.
May 12th, 2013


I just thought I nailed it :) The atmosphere, the simplicity of the flowers, the light.
May 12th, 2013
This one, maybe because of the emotions that day. It was a sunny day, we all were waiting for guests to arrive, then grilled shashliks and sat there till late evening... :)
May 12th, 2013


this one because the fly looks like an alien...
May 12th, 2013
I have taken so many recently it is hard to choose :) BUT my friend Kaylee is the reason I am back out there taking photos and I love how this came out :)

May 12th, 2013


this one is special to me
May 12th, 2013

Was happy that others liked this shot enough to Fav it!
May 12th, 2013
@gozoinklings love this
May 12th, 2013
I must add this one :-)

May 12th, 2013
@fullcircle thanks Cindy :)
May 12th, 2013
This was my favorite for this past week. I loved detail I was able to get with the 10x macro lens for my camera.



I love this thread. All of the photos are so fantastic. I love seeing them all.
May 12th, 2013
A beautiful walk and it was on this walk that I managed to actually photograph a cuckoo for the first time (I often hear them, sometimes spot them but had never managed to snap one before) so it was a great day.

May 12th, 2013


Just love the simplicity of this one :)
May 13th, 2013


I post based on a word of the day created for me. My word was Green and I just liked how the pink stood out with the green and black in the background.
May 13th, 2013
@frankhymus Thank you- I have no clue. I copied what the previous person had used. Makes sense though.
May 13th, 2013


This is my favorite because it was completely unplanned, but turned out so well. That, and the hand reminds me of Star Wars, and I imagine him saying, "These are not the chips you're looking for."
May 13th, 2013
Finally spring is here!
May 13th, 2013
May 13th, 2013
My favourite photo is easily this one


Sometimes they just come out exactly how you want them to. This one came close, and as I mentioned in the description the subject reminded me of the work of one of my favourite 365ers.

Having said that, my favourite "find", possibly of my whole project so far, was the daisies floating on water

It made me quite sad that I wasn't able to capture the scene as well as it deserved.
May 13th, 2013
Jo
I was pretty happy with this one
May 13th, 2013
Anything that we all agree on is worth remembering. ;-)



May 13th, 2013
May 13th, 2013
This image reminds me of my wonderful holidays. It was taken from the rooftop of my hotel in Hong Kong, en route to Australia.
May 13th, 2013
Hard to choose but i'm going to have to go with one of these two beach shots... it was a shoot we'd been planning for a while and I dont have an aweful lot of experience shooting outdoors. A quick 1 hour shoot before running off for dinner...


May 13th, 2013
Unusual colours that played off each other:

May 13th, 2013
My daughter Alix
May 13th, 2013
May 13th, 2013
May 13th, 2013
totally over edited, but I was practicing LR edits with brushes and m,y daughter got the star treatment ~ I think she looks beautiful she hates it!

May 13th, 2013
Because this turned out the way I imagined it in my head
May 13th, 2013
Bev
This is my favorite of the week... This is my very first ever blue jay shot...

May 13th, 2013
went fishing :)
May 14th, 2013


Just love everything on this photo
May 14th, 2013
The playfulness..

May 14th, 2013
I think this because I just love the look on my daughters face as she's checking out the butterfly.
May 14th, 2013
This was my bright spot in a chilly rainy week.
May 14th, 2013
I love the soft feel of this shot...and I love that I do not have to set up these shots at all...she just dresses like this.
May 14th, 2013
I was very pleased with the way this shot turned out. The colors really worked together on this one. Makes me think I could actually take some shots of food from time to time.

May 14th, 2013
I really like this one. It a bit of a 'something out of nothing' moment for me.
May 22nd, 2013
I love this shot. I was out shooting macros after a day long rain, it was mother's day and we were hiking in the forest for 5 hours without meeting another soul (just us and our tripods). When I got home at worked in LR, I liked the yellow clover and then saw the little guy.
