Can't embed an image for some reason
Not taken recently, but I did recently get this film negative drum scanned in order to make a 30"x30" print of it to hang at home.If you're not familiar with the process, drum scanning results in a much higher quality file; a typical high res lab scan will result in a file around 30mb from a medium format negative. A drum scan results in a 150mb file!
I've had it printed up on Super Gloss paper and then mounted onto dibond for use in a 1m sq frame. It looks amazing; can't wait to hang it. I realise it won't be everyone's idea of art you hang on a wall but this is probably my favourite image I've taken.

This is a work colleague of mine and taken in the foyer of our office. I love these little improvised moments; it shows you don't need a studio to make an interesting portrait.

We've had some crazy sea mist in Vancouver today. This was taken through the glass of my office building, with my phone camera. The lighting is nice, though.
The lighting is nice, though.
It is indeed - gorgeous.
I'm drifting a little in my focus. I don't have a particular 'project' other than a tentative idea based around Brighton Pier, tentatively called 'End of the Pier', but really it's just an excuse to head out and engage with interesting people. I do like this one however:

Hi GT. Remember when I posted some architecture images I liked (Joel Tjintjelaar or Julia Anna Gospodarou probably) and you said they did nothing for you? That image above evokes the same in me. I love a lot of your portraiture but I look at that and think "why?". I don't know what I'm missing, I don't feel drawn to ask who she is and how she got there.
It probably says more about me and my approach to the rest of my species than it does about your photography.
I love this thread but it does show me up for being bloody useless with a camera.
There is an awfully lot of talent on display here. Chapeau!!!!
That image above evokes the same in me.
To be honest I can see why you say that. What there is here that is interesting is a little oblique; the image sits st the cusp of what can be sustained as interesting. FWIW, what I see that holds my interest is her slight awkwardness, which makes her interesting to me.
I look at that photo and have many questions.
Not in the last month, but I'm pleased with this, as it took a bit of thought and patience to get into the right place at the right time, with the canoe pointing in the right direction in a gently moving stream and the drips at the right time. It also took quite a few shots...but is one of the very few occasions I've actually left home with a shot in mind.

Still nasty stuff from me technically speaking, but I've given up the heavy post-processing (kind of). I have a little 35mm Diana Mini which I love, so am now just using an emulator on my phone camera now. Just point and shoot and take what comes out with no further processing other than cropping of the nasty white border the emulator adds. Loads of fun and a much quicker workflow.

Been a while since I took any photos I thought were worth posting, but I’m really pleased with this one, taken on my way home from work. I could see bits of it, but there wasn’t anywhere I could pull over for a clear view, then noticed a convenient pull-in opposite a field with a low wall on the way out of Melksham. Had one very brief moment with no traffic, and it was beginning to fade, I tweaked the colour and contrast very slightly, and cropped the bottom to get rid of some litter. Best rainbow photo I’ve ever taken.
These photos do not capture the eeriness of this ghost hotel on some remote cliffs in Lanzarote:

@greybeard - great pics, love the Glencoe Lochan photo in particular.
@sofaking - wow! how did you manage to get that one?
Oops!! Great photos anyway and thanks for posting!
As always, lots of outstanding and inspiring photos on here!
Not taken recently, but I did recently get this film negative drum scanned in order to make a 30″x30″ print of it to hang at home.If you’re not familiar with the process, drum scanning results in a much higher quality file; a typical high res lab scan will result in a file around 30mb from a medium format negative. A drum scan results in a 150mb file!
@geetee1972, drum scanning is something I know a bit about, it was part of my job back in the mid to late 90’s! I trained on a Crosfield 1650 drum scanner with Mac Interface in 1995, and worked on photos for the likes of Titleist golf equipment for some years.
This one certainly isn’t one I’ve taken in the last month, or even year, it was taken in November 2003! The thing is, I’ve just got around to downloading it from Flickr, onto my photos on my iPad, and into postimage so I could post it here. It was possibly the first photo I took with a digital camera, a Nikon E5700 Bridge camera with 5mp and about 5x optical zoom. It was taken from about halfway back in the stalls in Bristol Hippodrome, and cameras were very much frowned on!
I still think this is one of the best photos I’ve ever taken, the subject is Emmylou Harris.

Been experimenting with a DIY desktop studio (AKA cardboard box, boxcutter and anglepoise lamp)
Not technically brilliant, notleast as was handheld and taken with iPad. But pleased nonetheless. Picked the plums near Worcs, in a tree overhanging a lane. No-one seems to pick plums these days and the woodland floor was full of them. I tried to incorporate the feel of times past as that’s how it felt. The plums were delicious by the way (and tiny)

@Jad - those photos are extraordinary, stunningly beautiful and I’m incredibly jealous!
But what landscapes, seems almost impossible to take a bad photo.
Northern lights last night over Levi (Finland). Another clear night forecast, so maybe another chance later.
A bit cheesy and I've done loads like this before, but was trying out my new action camera for stills and just liked the way it came out after some of my usual 'light touch' processing.
