It's my current favourite (my preferences are in flux), coz a) it most closely resembles my mind's image of such a thing, b) it is an alluded portrait made from a landscape, which fits quite neatly into my Weltanschauung and c) it cannot be catagorized without violating the senses.

judging by your portfolio, i see you have a lot of potential favourites.

It is emotive, thats why I like it, it still makes me laugh. It is also the shot that reminds me that at dpc sometimes really good shots do poorly.

bahhh...

great shot. but i can see where you lost marks in the interpretation of the challenge topic.

To use the InsertThumbnail function you only have to insert the image's ID number (at the very end of the URL -- 108708 in this case) as an argument -- not the full path to your portfolio.

Here's how your's should come out:

Mine is

It's a sea anemone takes in the aquarium of someone I know, under the actinic lights of the aquarium.
The picture itself is almost untouched. It is only resized, border added and SFW.

You are absolutely right. I should trim my portfolio down to two images. Then I would have something (seriously).

To link from pBase the code should look like this, except I've added a space in front of each opening bracket to inactivate it so you can see it.

[ url=//www.pbase.com/gilp/image/30573975][ img]//www.pbase.com/gilp/image/30573975/small.jpg[/img][/url]

The image tags are used within the text-insertion field you get when you use the InsertHyperlink button.

For images hosted at DPC, check out the Image_ID number at the very end of every URL referencing the photo. Then, just type that number only into the field for the Insert Thumbnail button so you get something like this:

"Meditation XVII"

It is on my top favorites list because it tells a story that I understand. This is actually a 'contrived' photograph and not candid at all. The people in the photo are unidentifiable, but I know who they are and their identity plays a strong role in the image.

cool effect and composition!

Something recent is usually what I like the best.
This one originally intended to be placed in

I've shared this one plenty of times before. Peolpe are probably sick of it.

Believe it, or not, this was THE picture that made me realize how much I liked taking pictures. A this point I didn't know a thing about composition, lighting, aperture, shutter speeds, etc... This was pure luck. I guess that's why it's my favorite.

Nice work :-)
I love that fog....
