If it's sporting ones taken by ourselves, then this is just about 2011 - England in the process of winning the first T20 after The Ashes at the Adelaide Oval

I'm particularly please with this one of me.....

Although I appreciate it might not be "photo of the year" in everyone else's eyes.

That's the whole point, it's your photo of the year, no need for explanations or justifications. It can be from the news, a professional or your own stock. It can be a personal memory, a sporting or news event or simply an insight into a slightly distorted mind. 😕

How to decide? As ever, memories and feelings rather than technically super photo's here:
1. This sums up eldest_oab's riding year 🙂
[img] [/img]
2. Youngest_oab got his peddle on at last 🙂
[img] [/img]
3. Loads of adventures this year, on bike, foot and water. This one has won a couple of comps, and is shortly to be published 🙂

Hi. I used a cheapo Cokin P grad and I think I also used a polariser. I probably didn't need either but it slowed the exposure a bit to smooth the water.

Don't have to be good, they have to be a photo that stuck in your mind for some reason.
Like the pic of the "Russian Blokes" Tollah.
