My best? Probably not, but, my favorite.
Favorites count, phlash46. Any shot that speaks to you is worth including here. This is very well done, hard to capture Christmas lighting well, and you did it. Great job, and thanks for taking part in our 'Best of' thread.

I know the post said one but I have two that I really liked. First one, I love the fact that you can see the pollen sac on the bumblebee. It's not a perfect photo by any means and it was shot on my D5100 with my Tamron 18-270. But, there is something about the bee on the marigolds that I like.
Second one is #4 of our five kids. Right before bed, casual, no flash, new to my D750...I like the picture.
Thanks to everyone who has made me feel welcome on this forum. Also, thank you to everyone who has posted to this thread. Thank you for sharing your personal perspective on your best of 2016!

This one had a big impact on me because it was shot with my iPhone and reminded me that I was more important than the gear.
Both a fun and appealing image, TB4, and you're quite right. The eye behind the camera is the most important part. Excellent shot, and thanks for proving once again that cell phones are not to be ignored when it comes to good photography. Glad you chose this one for entry into our 'Best of 2016' thread!

Spectacular as usual, Mike. Don't have a clue how you'd ever pick a 'best' shot, as every one of your images is a best one, lol. Always a treat, always impressive, and thanks for sharing this group with us for our 'Best of 2016' thread!

Lots of great shots here! It is hard to choose so I uploaded 3. The first two are from the Oregon coast and the third is from Fort Worth. The city puts christmas colored lights on the bridge and they rotate from red to green to yellow.
Thanks for joining the 'Best of 2016' thread, 346pak. Excellent images, and I really like the colorful bridge, so well composed. Glad you chose to include it among your favorites!

Maybe not my best but one of my favorites of the season. A female Roseate Skimmer (Orthemis ferruginea).

A beautiful shot, Don, and certainly one of the strong points of photography--creating and capturing images that make us smile with the memory of good times. Great choice for the thread, and thanks for submitting it!

This one I like to look at often so I guess it must be a favorite. It happened very quickly as my husband was driving and I had to time it between the windshield wipers! No time to look at settings-just picked up the camera and got a couple of shots.
Soft and mysterious, I like this one a lot! Nice job with it, and a great choice for a 'Best of' thread. Thanks for submitting it, Linda!

Great topic but very difficult to decide for a variety of reasons. I just viewed a bunch of beautiful photos submitted to this thread.
With that in mind, here are a few of mine.
All of these have been sent in lower resolution.
