[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 239540, member: 12257"] Well, all... it's been a grand year, and I've learned SO MUCH from being a member here at the forums. I think I've found a group of truly amazing folks, so I think I'll hang out a bit longer. At first, I thought I'd compile my fave 10 photos for my last post, but wow. I ended up flagging over 50 photos, and choosing 10 was... a challenge. So, I narrowed it down to my top 3 fave shots for the year. This will be my last post in this thread, as I'll be starting a 365 project tomorrow, so here we go... 1st the 2 runner-up photos: This one, I printed for a presentation in my first photography class, and I now keep it near my desk. Just a little 4x6, but it snags my attention every time. I had the grand opportunity to practice panning and catching motion, and this picture almost looks 3D at times. I flat out love it! Taken with the kit 18-55 lens. [ATTACH=CONFIG]64717._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then this one was just amazingly beautiful, and was the standout of my "Urban Autumn" self directed project. Shot at night with the nifty fifty, a tripod and a bit of longer exposure. All under a street light. [ATTACH=CONFIG]64718._xfImport[/ATTACH] And now, my all time fave of the year. Probably my fave because it has my boy in it, doing what boys do... combine that with the fact that my dad, his wife, and my wife were there with him, and all in my favorite place in the world, and *POOF*, a fun capture with a million heart strings attached. Definite fave whether it was the "best" pic of the year or not! [ATTACH=CONFIG]64719._xfImport[/ATTACH] Thanks to you ALL for the support and encouragement. Hopefully you've seen my skill improve, and I'm looking forward to wrangling more tips/tricks/techniques out of y'all next year!! See you in my 365! [/QUOTE]
