Sorry if it a repeat. I may have posted it before on another photo thread.
 
This is one of my favorite performers, Melissa Ferrick. This was taken 2 years ago with a canon 40d and a 70-300mm. I'm usually in the front and work to catch all of her "energy"

Favorite photos are tough. I have a lot for lots of different reasons. Alot of them I have used previously in challenges and contests. I'll start with this one. It's one of my favorites simply because I took it dangling from the end of a rope.

Undecided about this one. I like the treatment but at the same time I think it makes the image a little flat. I can't decide if the tree is meant to be the subject or if the canyon walls are.
 
Favorite Photo

This is definitely one of my favorites, it was the first photo I took in Germany with my new lens, and it really showed me a glimpse of what kind of pictures are possible.

The tree I guess is the subject. I was playing around with adjustments and that came out so I went with it. It has grown on me since only because it has a peculiar and interesting look. I wish I could say that I intended for that to happen but when the image came out like this while experimenting I decided to go with it. may be crop some of the upper canyon wall???

Impressive! Not sure I'd ever want to be in a position to take this one.

Great pic. You can provide a link that goes to the photo in your .me gallery but I do not think you can "share" an image like you can /// stop the presses...

I just tried it and you can. Go to the image you want to share. Right click and copy the image address and then use the insert image button on your post and paste the address in. It just worked for me. Learn something new every day :)

The colors and framing in this photo are excellent. I like the way the road forms a leading line through the woods.

Great shot. This one holds the tension of climbing quite well. I'm a bit too old to try this stuff now, but it looks like it was a fun trip.

My turn, family shot 30 seconds after the storm @ airshow:

The colors and expressions here make it a wonderful photo. I've always liked this one.

Nice shots from all!
