Hey all! What's your favourite photo over the past week, between 5-11 March?
You can post your favourite photo by copying and pasting the code from the 'Share' box that's in your photo page, together with info on when it was taken. Part of the challenge is only selecting ONE picture, so no cheating!
I've had a better week than some other weeks I've had recently, so it was a little difficult for me, but how can I choose anything other than my little baby cousin?! Taken on 6 March:
I've got a week of photos of this little hummingbird family that took up residence in in a tree on my side yard, but I particulary love this one of mama and the babies! If you want to see the series of them, please check both of my albums :)
I've been pretty happy with all my photos this week and there were a couple I would probably pick as being tied for my favorites. I'll go with this one though, since it got the most compliments
I liked this one because I captured part of the motion of the birds. I also like this because I stop whenever I see this shot to wonder about what is going on in the birds' minds during this moment in time.
This one from March 7 ended up in my "365 Unchosen" album. However, I love it because this photograph speaks to how I look at the world. Its title is "Pond in Early Spring Reflection Flipped." As I looked at the pond, I thought "What if the reflection is reality?" I flipped the sooc photograph to create this photographic view of a different reality.
This one. It was the set-up shot, which is totally typical. None of the ones with the fancy backdrops I did were anywhere near as dramatic as the one with the kitchen taps and chopping board reflected in it. Sigh.
There was also a shot of my daughter sleeping that I was particularly fond of too, but this one took the prize.
This week was tough, because I really liked a couple of the shots I got. But I really like how the sun reflected off the water on these little blooms. I was lucky, too, because it started pouring again right after this.
Really happy with this one and surprised it turned out so cool. It's a shot of my used matches bottle, it has a wide neck so allowed me to get a full view of the matches.
I spent all day at the flower show with my daughter and her friend photographing flowers, and at the end of the day, I caught this one, which of course is my fave!
I took this on the 8th but mistakenly uploaded it on the 9th as I took more of the same but had used an indoor setting on my camera. I preferred the colours in this one :o)
This is my favorite picture to date. This has a significant story behind it, please check it out. Plus, I managed to take it, edit it and post it with a wonderful description all on the right day! Which I am normally horrible at!
Would have to be this one. We are still snowed in and I was needing some colour. This was taken in a dimly lit restaurant, with a distracting background, and using a wine glass as my tripod. Image is SOOC with only the colour darkened a tiny bit.
To explain the time info, I bought this camera on eBay and still haven't adjusted the time settings, I assure it was taken the day the tattoo was completed (11th) since it's been wrapped in plastic since.
Hold on to what is good,
Even if it's a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe,
Even if it's a tree that stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do,
Even if it's a long way from here.
Hold on to your life,
Even if it's easier to let go.
Hold on to my hand,
Even if someday I'll be gone away from you.
I have a few nice ones, but I chose this one because it isn't one that people would normally look at and get wowed by. Really in everyday life these are pretty boring items. What do you think, still boring?
This week has been odd, I have generally been happy with all of my photos this week but they have had less views then normal and most have had very few comments.
This is my favourite of the week because I am weakest at portraiture and I am happy with how this one turned out.
I had a pretty good week, I was quite happy with my results. I wasn't a fan of this picture when I first posted it, as I'd actually taken several other shots that I REALLY wanted to work, so I was disappointed when they didn't. However, having sat back for a week and gone back to it, it's not too bad.
I went out at lunchtime with a friend and fellow 365-er, to take shots of people milling around at lunchtime. None of my people shots were fantastic, but the angles of this lamp post caught my eye at one stage, so I sat on the ground straddling the post, fitted my polaraising filter and fired away.
@tori3012 Has to be this one from Tori who always produces beautiful, elegant shots and can turn her hand from portraits to churches to trees. I love her photographs xx
@loztsoul That is awesome!
This is my favorite because I am so proud of how brave he was having surgery today!
I really like the title I came up with for this one: "Clover Taking Over"
yup, this is defiantly my favorite for the week.
A bug that decided to pose for me, or it was spooked by my presence.
I love vintage! These tracks were just what I was looking for that day :0)
Because it was so tiny I had no idea what it was before I looked through the vewifinder. A great surprise!
AFLAC
this is awesome!!
There was also a shot of my daughter sleeping that I was particularly fond of too, but this one took the prize.
Eyes Wide Shut..
March 8th (:
the sugar mill :)
"The pen is mightier than the sword" ... not always.
I really like this shot though:
I spent a really long time (nearly 2 hours) trying to get this shot... When I finally did, I was so excited! :)
I think my favourite is probably this one, taken on 9th March -
I spent all day at the flower show with my daughter and her friend photographing flowers, and at the end of the day, I caught this one, which of course is my fave!

At least he had fun with my photo assignment!

I like the colours in this one and because its just me, no props no extreme editing and its not very often i get a simple photo that i like

I like the shallow depth of field and the eyes.
This is my favourite of the week because I am weakest at portraiture and I am happy with how this one turned out.
Just like this view :)
This is Indiana (almost 16months old)
THIS WOULD BE MINE!!! ^____^
A week of experimenting with photoshop, this isn't too processed but it was much better than the original so I was happy with it.
Although, I really like this one, too...
Fred as I like to call him!
Little Musician
this is my most proud picture since i started this project
I went out at lunchtime with a friend and fellow 365-er, to take shots of people milling around at lunchtime. None of my people shots were fantastic, but the angles of this lamp post caught my eye at one stage, so I sat on the ground straddling the post, fitted my polaraising filter and fired away.
definitely this, I have been taking poor snapshots recently, this has restored my faith a bit
I love spring.
My daughter is so beautiful, yet I find it really hard to capture it in a photo. This time I was happy with the photo I took.
