Beautiful shot. I love the rich tones. It radiates warmth.

Concerning Frank's query, I find that a lot of the photos I think of
carry a lot of personal emotion which may not convey to other people.
But, and I have given it some thought, thinking about some of my more
recent shots I would have to say that the one of a great aunt of mine
- http://www.fotocommunity.com/pc/pc/mypics/583584/display/3364364 -
is one that sticks out for me. I would have to really go back over
some prints and slides to see others. Another that sticks out for me
is a slide of a girlfriend who I took to the Mayan ruins of Copan,
Honduras. It was her first travel internationally and she was in awe
of all she saw around her. I reveled in sharing that part of my
'heritage' with her. Anyway, I have a shot of portrait of her as she
just sat and took it all in. I even made a print and gave it to her
parents. I should look for the slide and scan it and post it...
Thanks for making me think of my shots - many that people never even
see.

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:

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
