Advertisement Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 Hi farnz, Take a look here "Give it your best shot" 2010 - OPEN TO ALL. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
vdb Posted December 21, 2010 Share #62 Posted December 21, 2010 Well, this is going to be tough to comment on all these fine images. Will do so over time... Bill....I can't seem to come to grips with your image. My eye darts around way too much. For me, too many distractions. Gotta agree with Pete, I too recall the image from Venice. No question that would have been a superior choice IMHO. Mauro...I recall this fine image. Bravo. Great to see it again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

digbyhp Posted December 22, 2010 Share #65 Posted December 22, 2010 FARNZ - I think the best so far. Probably not a 'classical' shot but I love the quietly sinister look on this guy, like a predator sitting between two sparrows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezc203 Posted December 22, 2010 Share #66 Posted December 22, 2010 Had to really think this one through, but here is my final decision on "My Best of 2010" [April 2010] Stranger in the Night at the Tribeca Grand Hotel One of my first attempts at employing Ben's (roguewave) "just-man-up-and-ask-for-a-photo" approach to photography. Admittedly this was after a few drinks, and I'm pretty sure at one point in the conversation I told her I was in love with her before she kindly allowed me to take this photo. So, I suppose I enjoy this photo more for process than results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted December 22, 2010 Share #67 Posted December 22, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) FARNZ - I think the best so far. Probably not a 'classical' shot but I love the quietly sinister look on this guy, like a predator sitting between two sparrows. Digby, Just to burst the bubble, Thomasz is a very nice man, a forum member and not sinister at all. Thank you for your kind comment though. (For info, I shot the picture with my M8 and 90 mm APO-Summicron-M asph.) Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratherb Posted December 22, 2010 Share #74 Posted December 22, 2010 I think, this is mine. I did the shot in china, near Fujian in a small town in the local market hall in the morning. This pic is right out of the camera , 35mm 1,4 asph. FLE 160 ASA and that is what I like, the real athmosphere...... hope you enjoy herb Welcome, dear visitor!

michali Posted December 22, 2010 Share #76 Posted December 22, 2010 Bill-Great idea, the best collection of pictures, I've seen posted for some time! I hope we all keep thinking more carefully about what we post. 2010 was a busy year for my Leicas and me, a great deal of traveling through Africa with great photo opportunities. This is a hunter from the Hadza hunter-gatherer tribe in Tanzania up against a massive Baobab tree. I desaturated him as the light was very harsh, B&W my favorite technique was too contrasty. I want to use this pic on a cover for a book on African tribes that I'm busy with; a great opportunity for me to get feedback and critique. Welcome, dear visitor!

stuny Posted December 22, 2010 Share #78 Posted December 22, 2010 Bill - Your idea is working well. Perhaps you shoud resurface it at the end of each month (or if not that often, each quarter). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share #79 Posted December 22, 2010 Thanks Stuart, but that is one of the key points of this exercise - this isn't something that I want to repeat every quarter, let alone every month. The next time I start a thread like this it will be called "Give it your best shot" 2011 - because I firmly believe that quantity does not have a quality all of its own. One of the reasons I started this thread was to encourage people to think - really think - about what their one, single best shot of the year really is - excellence encouraged and enhanced by enforced self-editing and self-restraint.

JE Posted December 22, 2010 Share #80 Posted December 22, 2010 This one because of the experience of the encounter. I met him an an open field in Chicago. He had a fire going behind him. It was cold. It was one of the only times I've gotten openly close. It was worth it, and I came away with a series I like. Welcome, dear visitor!
