I haven’t done one of these for a while, partly as I haven’t been going in depth into Flickr too much recently. But anyway, here are my most recent favourites. I think my favourite of these has to be this one from a team of Spanish students who designed and built a weather balloon and camera combo, sent it off into the atmosphere and then retrieve the camera and develop the shots. It’s a beautiful, beautiful shot!

After hardly being on the internet for a week or two by September, I finally got round to getting a desk and then setting up with computer and three fuctioning HDs. Found quite a few more new photographers on Flickr that I really like recently, and among this month’s shots my favourites are probably this cool cat from Recep-bg and this one from Zeissism. This shot is amazing. Fantastic portrait.

I’ve been looking at Flickr a lot again recently, probably as a result of having too much free time as the school term winds down. A lot of the shots I have enjoyed the most this month too have been taken with Leica’s and Hasselblads. Really starting to get hungry for one. Anyway, my favourites among these are probably this one from Tommy Oshima and this one from drewvalenti. This shot of the Floating Mosque in Malaysia is basically perfect, and one that I wish I had taken. Oh, to be somewhere like that, with that sky and a camera!

I didn’t post these last month, so here are my favourites from the previous month. A lot of lovely photos here, the ones I like best are probably this one from CK22 and this one from *kit*. This shot of London is also beautiful and a good example of how HDR doesn’t have to be blown-out unreality. Recently, I find that I like Leica and Hasselblad shots more and more. I may have to investigate a 30th birthday present to myself in one of those areas!

I’ve found myself favouriting less photos this month than the couple of month’s previously. I’m not sure why – probably partly due to being busier at work than I would like. These are my favourites from April; I think my favourites are the “Riding the Skies” shot from “ezee” and the untitled shot from “nsbkaizen”. Good work. I haven’t been taking many photos myself lately either, other than snapshots, but I need to start again. No time right now.

Once again, here are my favourite photos from February. Enjoying Flickr a lot at the moment, although I am still unable to understand their “interestingness” thing, where a couple of my photos, despite having more views/comments/favourites than a lot of others, are still rated lower than them. Seems to make no sense…

These are my favourite photos from January. I’ve been spending quite a lot of time on Flickr recently; it’s one of the best places on the web to go and get information about cameras and lenses and also to check out good places to visit. Unfortunately it’s also inspiring some serious wanderlust in me right now too…click the picture above to see the gallery of individual photos.
