    Another excellent month for me but picking a favourite is hard. Starting to think I'm getting into this photography lark.

    May was a good month for me, hard to pick one,but I'll have to go with this, when I was ploughing the field I thought this shot might work.........

    Not a great month probably this, as it was something that I set out to do with a specific goal in mind and I got close to what I wanted. Not as close as I would have like, but at least I tried something different and expanded my learning a little bit!

    Strange month for me.
    Started off fairly busy, but tapered off towards the end.

    Anyway, at least I got to go home...

    It's been a decent enough month for me, dunno if I got anything amazing but I got out with the camera a lot anyway. This is probably my favourite.

    May was a rollercoaster month for me.

    Was a long month with crap weather :)
    Only had few good days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,744 ✭✭✭deRanged


    I didn't take much in May, but I did revisit these shoes.

    Dry month, middle exams so the only pics i've taken have been in my back garden.

    Quite liked this one though.

    You should do it more often Elven, both the person (*gasp*) and the image are totally bodacious.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,689 ✭✭✭shepthedog


    The quality of shots this month is mind blowing.. incredible stuff

    My effort.. Been up the walls with exams etc and now to get back taking shots for fun and not because I have to..

    its 50mm f1.8 Nikkor


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,196 ✭✭✭PaulieC


    hard to choose...I got at least two pix in may that I really like:

    this one I had been seeing in my mind's eye for a long while before I got to take it. Passed these flowers everyday on my way home form work, but had to wait for a blue sky...
    2547202387_8290ddd806.jpg

    and this one I just really like - two of my favourite subjects and very hard to get a different view on them...

    2504666627_da02838956.jpg


    apologies if there was a 1 pic per post rule that I broke...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,155 ✭✭✭PopeBuckfastXVI


    Paul I love that first one!

    Posted before, but this is my May fave...

    Gotta agree with that, the nifty fifty is a wonderful little lens.

    CamboGueno, love your first image, what a lovely point of view.
