Sunday Stills ~ Best Shots of 2010

 

This week’s Sunday Stills Challenge is always a difficult one for me, trying to choose just one favorite shot from the previous year. But thankfully I don’t have to, because Ed said to post as many favorites as we’d like. I was still pretty fickle and chose only my top favorites, discarding any that didn’t meet my criteria. But, beware, there’s still a lot of photos to look through.

Here are my chosen favorites of 2010:

1)From “Metal”

 

2)From a “Day in the Life”

3)From “Fruit”

4)From “Black and White”

5)From “History”

6)From “Moods and Emotions”

 

7)From “Potluck”

8)From “Rule of Thirds”

9)From “Potluck”

10)From “Rule of Thirds”

11)From “Sports”

12)From “Hands”

13)From “Hands”

14)From “Valentine’s Day”

15)From “Rule of Thirds”

16)From “Shoes”

17)From “Rule of Thirds”

I think my favorite Sunday Still Challenge for 2010 has to be “Rule of Thirds”. There is something so interesting and challenging about working towards the goal of fitting your photos into the scientific, mathematical, and creative aspect of photography using perspective and subject placement. It just makes for a more pleasing and interesting photo.

I took all of the above photos with my little point and shoot camera (Canon Powershot SX 110 IS) with very little editing for most of them using Picnik or just a basic Windows program to adjust contrast and add a watermark.

Which are your favorites?

 

Happy 2011 Everyone!
