http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055167625 Anyway, I've decided to submit a picture for this, but I can't decide on which one to go with. I didn't know what type of photographer I was, but I think the pictures that I put together quite clearly puts me in the 'travel photographer' category :p Any ideas on…

Any ideas on which is the best of the lot? C&C welcome of course

A few of them are different versions of the same thing.

I've put together a set on flickr with names etc:

I like the jellyfish one - I think it'll stand out in the exhibition too due to its colours and subject.

Yeah I'd agree with thirdfox. The jellyfish is the first one that catches your eye out of that lot!

Shinjuku buildings is cool too!

I'd agree with the votes for Jelly fish, also like Samurai Fight, Osaka Castle. Plenty of colour and action is nicely captured.

Hmmmm.

The jellyfish thing has been done before. It's lovely, but I'm not sure it's the picture that shows your style off best. Out of that set, I'm blown away by the Interpol Sunburst shot. It's atmospheric, instantly recognisable yet different - and aesthetically pleasing with the contrast and colour. I also love the urban sunset because it just has a lovely mood. If you wanted to choose a more 'conventional' shot, the shinjuku buildings one is great - that little patch of sunshine in the middle lifts it right off the screen

I also like the one of the bloke playing the banjo type thing... but I think I should stop at my favourite 3!

Interpol/Oxygen is definitely my favourite. Intruiging and evocative because it's semi-abstract, a good gig photo, and the colours are vibrant.

Some great shots there, I can see why you found it hard to pick!!! I had the same trouble, had it narrowed down to 4 and couldnt decide and there was noone around to ask so I just submitted the one with the most Flickr activity instead... probably not the best way to choose but I was running out of time.
