I think this was my favorite photo this year that I took. Had a great night and the whole thing was just an experience.

My favourite simply because of the surreal fog!
Martin
"Grazing" is probably one of my favourites from 2008.
Crystal
One of my favorite photos is one that I took early on when I just got my 50mm F/1.8 lens last year. I can’t wait for summer to get here again.
Vijesh
This is a hard, but still I need to pick one. This would be my favorite. I had never seen her so beautiful like that before, an its the memorable vacation I had with the people that mattered most to me. Shot at Karwar, India.
Fee Easton
I have 2 favourites but i will go with this one as being my fav
Jessica
It’s hard for me to pick, but this is what I chose on my blog. I like the mood and contrast of old world and modern. It was one of those moments when I just happened to have my camera, was out with a friend doing something else, and just saw something that made me start snapping away. I love it when that happens! Starting my photoblog about Rome a few months ago has really been a fantastic experience for me and I’m looking forward to continuing to use it to expose my adopted city to others and explore it even more myself.
Ariston Collander
My favorite was of model Laura Shodire from ModelMayhem. This photo IS safe for work. Capturing her hair and face as she threw her head back, along with the lighting and general warmth of the image made it look fantastic.
Tony
2008 was not a great year for my photos it seems :) But here is one of my favorites.
Jason
This photo was taken at the Terracotta Army historic site in Xi’an China. It was overcrowded and people were snapping photos on all sides of a statue in a glass display case. I saw this boy looking up at the statue with a wonder-filled expression and pulled the trigger just in time to capture this image.
Leif
My photo was taken at the Werribee Zoo, of a female rhino whilst on the special close-up tour on the back of a ute.
Sinisa
No dilemma. While driving tired late in the evening on Iceland, practically stumbled upon glacial lagoon under full moon. Surreal.
Brian Auer
My favorite is this photo of my Wife and Daughter. It was shot on a 1956 TLR on b/w film and printed in my darkroom.
Lisa Newton
I just got my new camera, a Nikon D40, so I’ve been taking a lot of pictures, just to get used to it. In fact, I just started a blog where I can talk, get to know people, and post my pictures. I’m so excited. On the first day I had it, I went to the beach, my favorite place to be, and took this shot.
Cody Redmon
This image is my favorite of the year because it captures everything I like about my geography in a rather dramatic minimalist image. Thanks for including your readers! :-)
Martin Waters
A fifty foot spider attacking a city proved memorable and out of all the shots I took in 2008 this remains my favourite, simply because it captures the whole “war of the worlds” feel the organisers were aiming for.
Neal Eiserman
I have a lot of favourites from last year, but I think I’ll go with this one as my overall fav. I like it because it captures a wonderful moment from a wonderful day. I also like the composition, the lighting and the depth of field.
Arpad
I would choose the photo posted first: this picture is special because it was done for my first architectural project. I was amazed and excited at the ease and peace the dog had even though I was setting up my equipment and lights. It helped me to feel more at ease and confident.
Chris Sprout
Here’s one of my favorite photos of 2008. It was taken at the Detroit Red Bull Air Race.
Antoine Khater
Really hard to pick up only one Neil I hope you understand :)
Anthea
My favourite photo would have to be the one that makes me happy just by looking at it. It is of my favourite flower - a tulip.
Which is your favourite photo? What do you like about these photos? Do you have a favourite photo taken last year? If so, please leave a link to it in the comments below.
I look forward to doing this again next year!
That’s a great collection of photos!
Hi everyone
Really fantastic images everyone. You should all be really proud of them:)
I especially like Jessyel’s, Jason’s and Brian’s.
Cheers
Naomi
Oh awesome. Such an array of different styles, and yet each picture so special. My personal favourite (although this is hard, because they’re all good) is the summery one, of the lilo. It just SPEAKS to me. Makes me crave ice lollies, want to jump into the pool and all that. *and* I just got my own 50mm F1.8, so I can totally appreciate the image! It’s the kind of thing I would take :)
