🎊Share YOUR BEST Photo of the YEAR💖

[JackieR]

Thank you to all who have joined in with this weekly thread, to show off a favourite photograph from the past week.

This week I'm asking you to share your FAVOURITE FROM THE WHOLE YEAR

To do this peruse your albums and find the one you love the most. ( OK you can have two if you really really REALLY really can't decide!, 🤣)

If you're new to this to upload the photo click on the arrow bottom right corner of the photo copy the data that pops up and paste it into the thread below

Please do add a sentence or two to say why this one stands out for you

This one sticks in my memory mainly because it was shortlisted by @scrivna in the theme-movement challenge and narrowly got the most votes.And it was a quick reaction shot, and I got lucky.



Happy New Year. In 2023 this thread will be posted monthly ( unless someone volunteers to take over the weekly host role 🤣)

[Casablanca]

It has to be this one, not because I even took it, (I am the one in the union jack t shirt!) but because it was a first time meet up at Wisley Gardens in June with several 365ers and it was glorious to see them in person.

[Kathy A]

Very hard to choose as I have lots of favourites but I chose this one (that I didn’t even take) as I sold my house where I had lived for 36 years, it was such a huge change in my life

[JackieR]

@casablanca oh the lovely Nigel!!!
@kjarn what a life changer!!

[☠northy]

Not necessarily my best…. But definitely among my most memorable 🙃

[Tim Erskine]

Action! Drama! Wild Horses! What else does a shot need???

[Skip Tribby - ​🖖]

There were a couple I could have chosen. One did better as far as responses from fellow 365ers. But I decided on this one.

[Carole G]

I've chosen this one, as I was very happy with how it turned out, and it also received the most favourites I've ever had I think.

[Milanie]

Don't know about my best, but definitely my favorite - probably because of the memories this spot always brings with it. We fished and canoed this river for forty years.

[Susan Wakely]

Not the best quality but what a fabulous thing to witness with my dear friend.

[JackieR]

@skipt07 isn't it strange how comments fluctuate?
@yorkshirekiwi deserves every fav you got!!!
@milaniet perhaps best was wrong word to put in the title!!! Sorry
@wakelys vicious little birds!!!

[JackieR]

@timerskine nope, has it all!!
@northy what a privilege to see this!

[Skip Tribby - ​🖖]

@yorkshirekiwi - I can easily see why this is your favorite Carole!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

I picked this one because I was excited to capture her and I think she looked so pretty among all the green.

[Shutterbug]

I love this one taken on our vacation to Lake Tahoe. I believe I captured the beautiful color of the sunset.

[LManning (Laura)]

I love my backyard birds, and the sassiness of this Chickadee in particular!


Thank you @30pics4jackiesdiamond for hosting this thread all year. I really appreciate having the prompt to step back and reflect.

[Antonio-S]

This is my photo 2022.
I think not necessary explain the reason...!

[Larry L]

Wow, choosing 1 picture is pretty impossible. But here's 1 I especially like, which didn't get traction at any of the sites I frequent:



I do wish I had used a slower shutter speed (than 1/250th) to get a little blur on the cars...

[JackieR]

@lsquared love all thr lines
@antonios story told we'll
@ljmanning cute bird
@shutterbug49 wow that sky is so vivid
@mittens oh how lovely

[Lin]

April was a fun month with the 30 shots of one subject - here's one of my yogi skeletons.

[Nada]

Tough to pick one as they all represent different memories, each special in their own way. Choosing this one for the peace of that moment.

[JackieR]

@linnypinny oh I'd forgotten the fun of your skellingbone month!!
@njmom3 that's beautiful

[Helge E. Storheim]

This one because I am getting older and when I was a kid the yellow trams were our preferred mode of transportation around town. This one is a museum piece and they take it for a spin every Sunday (weather permitting)



And this one (also because I'm getting older :-) I shot film for many years with Olympus OM and Minolta cameras. The last few months I have shot my first 35mm film in almost 20 years and it was a lot of fun

[KoalaGardens🐨]

Hope's melting eyes get me every time - the experience on this particular day with him coming down the tree quite near me then scampering up and arguing with mum just makes this my favourite vision of Hope for koalas and the planet.

[Taffy]

My first successful lightning capture, so my favorite - or most memorable - of the year:

[Kartia]

I really enjoyed exploring this technique. It touched me deeply, how many mundane ‘images’ combine into something more beautiful than they are alone.

[Junko Y]

So hard, this concept of "best" but here's one that I feel captures a moment in time that all aligned nicely, the full moon, the reflection, my friend, and the below-the-breakwater-reflection.

[Kathy Burzynski]

I am not a fan of snow or winter at all, but for some reason I really liked the way this photo turned out. It was taken in January 2022.

[JackieR]

@myhrhelper love those tones
@jyokota I should have typed favourite not best, sorry. Love this silhouette @kartia it is a lovely effect you achieved
@taffy wowsers, looks dramatic
@koalagardens aww!!!
@helstor365 enjoy using film more this year

[Krista Marson]

This is my personal favorite because it really transports me to a magical forest:

[Joanne Diochon]

I think this has to be my favourite. I have a few of this hawk but I love the fact that here I got all of him, including his lovely yellow feet and, I especially love the expression, with him standing beside the bird bath and hoping for his dinner to just drop from the sky.

[JackieR]

@gardencat oh how fabulous and so close!!
@blueberry1222 very magical
