Title says it all. Post your best/favorite single pic of yours from last year.



It was not a banner year for me, but this January shot of my dog Gilly (who died on August 31) is probably my favorite:

I've got so many from this year... But probably this:


It's not something I usually photograph and got 100% lucky on the time and place I took it.

The placed is called Union Terminal, and in the 1940s it was the busiest train station in the world. It's now home of the Cincinnati Museum Center and my dad also volunteers there. Everyone at Union Terminal loves the photo (dad put a copy up in their office).

It's a really nice shot, and some great processing work. Be proud!



I had a hard time picking one from the year, but I'll go with this one:

I'm pretty fond of this one. He just won the race after breaking away on the last lap. There's a few that I really really like from this race. Shooting in the rain at night was a lot of fun and made for some great images, but I really like capturing his energy here. Hopefully it says the same to people who weren't there, that's what I want to capture, and that's what makes this so difficult and fun

I just searched through my Lightroom 2012 folder for the last couple hours and while there are a lot of pics that I love... the best photo I took this year was probably with my phone.

Granted, I had a lot of stuff going on. The whole year was pretty much snapshots of moving or scenery around the new house. I really need to get on the ball this year.

No posing or anything, just at the right time at the right place I guess.

Thanks a ton, guys. I need an image editor or something.

Printing big should not be a problem. 100% crop:

I think you need a macro lens and take the photo from the lure's perspective lol
