Not my best, but one of my favorites. Had a chance to shoot at a black skimmer colony this past summer. The expression on the fish gave me a good laugh. Cropped but SOOC otherwise.

I am enjoying the response to this and here is one of my favorites because it happened so fast and it is from my iPhone! I was pet sitting ( I have dogs, not cats) and this kitty was on a chair under the table. the light was quick and so was the cat. She moved 2 seconds after this shot!

This one. Taken on Dec 22 shortly after 7 AM. I had looked out our upstairs window to see any early birds at the feeder and saw this coming over the horizon. I made it down to the camera just in time for several quick shots, then it was gone.

These are actually from late 2016 but they are the best I've done recently.

Have to go with this one because it is different.
I don't recall seeing you around but I like the picture. You're right. It is different and it's also interesting.

Can't say this was my favorite but I got a kick out of it. It was a quick grab shot, outdoors at the local market, a huge crop, and yielded detail in spite of that and the resulting noise. It tells a story, at least, to me, about how little tykes can make strange when a camera is pointed at them. That's Mom's hand as she is chatting with me, so that was not an issue.
There's also an abstract factor in this b&w candid portrait that, IMHO, adds additional mood.

Beautiful shot. The image evokes what's probably not even there. There is a feeling of trepidation in the look on the beautiful child's face. Something about the dishevelment of her hair and the look of fear in her eyes reminds me of the children of war, full of fear and damaged by things no child should ever have to see. I'm glad to know none of these things actually apply.
