What's your favourite picture from 2009 posted in "The Great Super Macro Multitool Picture Thread " or "The great multitool picture thread".?

Post your own best picture along with the best picture by a fellow member..
Each of the pics should be followed by a short description, why you chose them.  :)

This thread is solely for Multitools and if you're in doubt please read Benners definition here.: Click (http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,16204.msg306947.html#msg306947).  ;)

Ok, I'll start.  I can't find my favorite pic that I took yet, but I'll start with my favorite from a fellow member:
DaveK from "The great mt picture thread":
(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e10/DaveK-ToolPics/juicerow1.jpg)

Fantastic shot!  Very unique and it's a picture of Juices...that's awesome!  Other than that, I don't know what to say.  Just the right amount of color and a really neat shot! :cheers:

Okay.

Here's my meagre submission:

(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e10/DaveK-ToolPics/ChargeGang.jpg)

I just like the way the tools look like a gang, (or dance troop :D)

and this one is by Anthony - 24th Jan 2009.

(http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii2/Corrugated123/P1010002.jpg)

Reason for choosing: It was just funny, showing a SOG that had been on a pass-around saying goodbye to its friends before being packed and posted on. Brilliant :D

I will ask everyone to respect my wishes and not submit any of mine. I was shocked that the last one got locked. It left a sour taste in my mouth.

It was I that locked it as it was Allans thread and the angle he wanted it to go down wasn't quite happening.  Now the "rules" have been fully set up things are now off and anyone can post anything they did before or start again if they see fit.  It was not done to upset or alter any results that I can assure you.

I'm not sure what brought that on Chako, but it sounds a bit grumpy tbh.

If you read the last posts of the "old" thread, we had a really good dialog about how we could do this. As Benner said, it was solely done
to maintain the right angle..  :)

You're supposed to pick ONE :D
There's always one...  ::)  ::)


Here's my favourite pictures..

Favourite by another member:
Magicbus posted this fantastic PST picture.  :tu:
It could actually hang over the couch in the living room. (if SWMBO agreed) ;)

My own:
I'm not nearly as talented as many other members here, I just shoot away and hopefully something useful appears.
These Bugger are soo hard to come by and I only had both for a quick moment, before sending one to US..  :cry:

Wow I'm really suprised to see one of my pics in here , I don't have a very good camera at the moment so I don't take as many as I used too . Thanks  :D

At the moment I'm going for Bobs Apocalypse Dawn . I love the smell of WD40 in the morning  :D

I also have to go with this one, I have been looking at pictures for God knows how long now and I just love the pic, with the fog and barbed wire.

As for a pic from me I will say this one, my first MT photo set with my Canon 500

Dunc

Well, personally, I think the "quality" of the image is only part of the story (although that isn't exactly bad Dunc). OK, you need to be able to see what the picture is of, but the most important thing is how interesting it is. That's why I picked Anthony's humorous one - quite simply it's a year old and I remembered it out of the hundreds on that thread.

I think it's a great pic Dunc  :cheers:

Ok, so if the picture that we took ourselves sucked but there is another pic by another member who we would happily nominate in place of our own pic, can we do that?

Ok I have spent way too much time looking through and debating on which pics to go for so here are my choices.

First up is mine.  Luckily for me I have taken very few MT pics this year as I have been on a bit of a folder quest so I didn't have many choices.  Far from the best pic going but the best out of the bunch I had;

(http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t41/benniehunts/IMG_2056.jpg?t=1262441523)

Second up is my choice of someone else which was a really difficult decision.  In the end I settled for this by Woz;

(http://img11.abload.de/img/dsc01107y9cz.jpg)

Apart from the fact it is an exceptionally well taken picture (look at the sharpness of the Spirit outside the water) I liked the effect he created.

Some great pics here that I have missed previously. I think that SOG goodbye shot is brilliant, really made me giggle :D

As for the best shot in general, I loved the composition of Davek's Juices.  :tu:

I'm too lazy/tired to go find new ideas!
