Very nice shots, Frank.

I believe photography is about capturing the moment (as do you, as far as I
can tell).

This is why I think the best photo ever (my favorite) is actually a
painting:
Hip, Hip, Hurra by P.S. Krøyer (was made from the painters memory - and from
his photographs):

I also love: Amrerian Girl in Italy, by Ruth Orkin very much:

Among my own is "Cabaret" - a poster promoting a the musical "Cabaret".
I don't have the photograph anymore (6x6 slide made with my Rolleiflex
3.5F - the newspaper lost it), but I have the poster.
I will have it scanned some day (it's huge).

Other than that I like this one - even if it's not sharp:

Emne: Poll: Best Photo Ever


My Anti-Valentines day post the other day got me thinking (a rare
occurance to be sure).  There, I posted this photo:

http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5806/2203/1600/haley.jpg

which happens to be my favourite photo of mine.  It's a close race,
actually, because until I took that one a couple of years ago, this
one was my fave:

http://urbancaravan.com/graphics/asian_girl.jpg

It's still a close call, but I think the first one is currently my
favourite.

Now, given the general mediocrity of the thousands and thousand of
frames that I've taken over the years, picking a favourite, or a few
favourites may not be such a huge problem <g>.  How about you?  Do you
have a favourite among the many photos you've taken?  If so, can you
post it?

I think it might be interesting to see how personal favourites might
differ from what I perceive as the style of that photographer.

cheers,
frank
