Favorite Photograph You've Made

[MexicanTravels]

I know there have to be some fellow photographers on here. What's your favorite photograph you've taken?

I'll start with mine: It's actually a cyanotype but it still technically counts as a photograph because it's made using the rays of the sun hitting a special chemical mixture coated on paper that makes it blue. I printed the Blue Screen of Death text on transparency film and overlaid it on the paper.

What I really like about it is that is uses this really archaic process to point at obsolescence in different ways, whether that's through the defunct nature of the cyanotype process or the Windows 98 BSOD font. It also references Yves Klein's monochrome blue paintings about the void.

Now your turn!

Took this a good few years ago, I think even before it all went to shit.

I haven't got much of an explaination for it. Its just a nice well thought out photo.
Excuse the 2 suns, the middle is the flash. (Picture of a picture)

I don't do the pro photography thing, but I like this pic I took of my cat lying against me a few months back. He's too damn cute sometimes.

Haha, I was about to say some Tatooine stuff is going on here.

I have a small black and white printed photo. I want to transfer it to a wall, using a photo sensitive chemical and projector ideally, but have hit really pixelated, newspaper style. It would be smudged and faded etc but as long as you see some of the photo its exactly the effect I'm aiming for

Okay, I have two more pics I want to share. They're real photographs this time! They were taken in Marion, NC with my Sinar P2, which is a large format camera.

The first one is a photo of a man playing a shooting game in a laundromat.

The second is a pic of a boy vaping in a park.

Thanks, I used to go down there for a smoke so no one could find me.

 

[BurningLights]

Nice, that would be an awesome place to smoke. There was an abonded house in my town, used to go there drinking and what not. Creepy as fuck!

Just took it by chance one day on my phone camera and I thought it turned out super pretty.

Thanks for replying ! Here's 1 more of that Tiger. I stood there for about 15 minutes waiting for it to turn it's head towards me but it never did.

Any Holga or film users out there? Here are a couple of my favorites, light leaks, double exposures, and all.

A Boxer and a muscadine grape vine with a banana tree in the back.

Taken right after UNC-Chapel Hill's win over Duke in 2014 on Franklin Street.

This one. I took it at a zoo.

Aw, this one is pretty cool!

Aw, this one is pretty cool!

Agreed, I thought it looked like a face at first look!

 

[sólstafir]

Honestly, I think I haven't done it yet. I can't recall from my memory of such photograph which I consider the best despite having thousands of photographs in my computer made over the years. I'd need to have at least some level of knowledge about photography to feel myself confident to put emotion AND technical skill behind the picture which I can feel in your photographs, MexicanTravels!
It was few nights ago when I was sitting on the floor and thought that curtain and light catched my attention in an inspiring and interesting way, but I didn't took a photo because I would have wanted a good camera for that and an actual skill..
Thank you for that thread!
