Best Photo?

Let's see your best photos--NOT of Rolex watches. I always appreciate fields in which I have no talent, and photography is definitely one. Almost everyday on this forum, I see an exceptional photo. So please, artists, post what you think are your best pictures ever taken.

Thanks Leo. These are the ones I found from out honeymoon in St. Lucia, our 1 year anniversary in Italy and a trip to Barcelona we took with some friends.

She won't read this, so I can say without it going to her head. But, these are not the best pictures she has taken. Only the ones I found. I don't know how to work the computer too well. These are some of the ones she has in a place to email easily.

Let's see some of yours Leo.

We are lucky to have been 3 times. We planed on going last April but she was pregnant. So, we planned for this April, and she is pregnant again!

Maybe 2011, we can go again. But, this time it will be $$$ EXPENSIVE. We need to take a nanny to help out with 2 girls!

Here are some more I found. My favorite shirt is included. The shirt was given to me by my best friend for my 30th birthday. He knows my taste in clothes

Since one of my passions is raising and caring for orchids, I would have to say my orchid images are (what I would consider) my best photographs.

Here's a couple of them:

Pep,

Your wife has some impressive photgraphy skills!

Steve,

Great pictures, especially of that beautiful, purple Orchid. Hope you framed it and found a location in your wonderful, artistic home.

I don't know if this one is my best, but it's one of my favorites. Mt. Rainier from about 17,000 feet:

Here is a shot in the Pensacola Naval Air Museum



Here is one of an Osprey landing on a nest in a canal off the Intracostal Waterway.



And here is are some Dolphins in the same canal.
