    Tough decision for us all:)

    Because it is a photo I never set out to take but when the chance came -took quite well I think ( with a 20 old nikon lens) I'll go for this one :)

    Hmmm... tough one, but I think I'll go for this. Liked that it was a different take on a frequently photographed spot (:

    I've quite a few photos that I'd like to choose but I can't seem to find them. This will to have to do, I can say I was quite pleased about this one. :)

    Everyone else'll probably hate it, but it's the one that comes to my head first. Taken on 27th May '11;

    I find it hard to choose (ask me again and I wil pick another one) but this is my favourite at the moment. Its probably best viewed large.

    Happy Snapping for 2012!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    Probably not my best, but it's the one I like.

    Taken at the Ballyvaughan Races, bit of spontaneous fun with the wide-angle lens. Turned out to be my fav shot in ages!

    Hard to pick a very top of the pile favourite but this one taken at a charity rugby match is definitely one of my faves.

    Only got my SLR in September/October so there all my favourite so far :D
    But this one always comes to mind for some reason.

    I really should crop out the rubbish bins on either side, or indeed be more aware of the composition when i go to take a similar pic again, but i suppose thats what we learn at each photo.

    This was the highest mountain I ascended this year. It was a 16 hour round hike. There was an ominous stillness in the air and formidable weather systems rolling in from all aspects. No two days in the mountains are ever the same, the lighting on this day was, in my opinion, perfect.

    It's a toss up between a couple, but this one probably stands out for me. As with most things, the shots you planned sometimes don't come out, and the shots you pulled off in spur of the moment can be the most memorable.

    I think its this one...

    Like everybody else it might be this one.... Grabbed while photographing a road race in Fota Wildlife Park.

    There are a couple of others I like as well though, which is unusual for me!!

    I got a DSLR last year and put alot of effort into learning how to use it. Despite this my favourite photo was taken with a decent point and click camera.

    I was happy with how smoothly this star trails attempt went - previously I'd only tried single long exposures, but this was my first time trying stacking. Just about my favourite:

    This is mine. Its probably quite a boring shot, not even following the rule of thirds but I love the light and feel of it.
