Team, all systems go on the Best Of... gallery. Some amazing images. Thanks all.

Please get in touch here if you sent in an image and it's not in the gallery. I'll be able to sort it ASAP. Sometimes things end up in Spam folders instead of Inboxes.

There's ben some great collaborations but this one is jaw-droppingly good. Well worth the short wait - as with all good things.

Definitely worth the wait!
Even better to see submissions from all of the moderators!!!  It's like dreamland!    :)
What a lineup and too many favorites, and I love the little stories that go along with them.

Excellent group.

I was very excited to see that Big D, The Druid, Madame Blurstine & Brother Skorj had all joined in this time. It's like 2006 all over again  ;) :D Huzzah!

On a more general note, I've been through the gallery a few times now and the standard is really high. There are some lovely, lovely images on display.

Now, all I have to say is WOW!

50 participants, a record!
All the founders were there, Yippie!
It was put online on time, a big hurray for Ed  ;) ;D
And the level is just mind blowing...

I definitely need to get my act together this year  :-\

Yup a very good set. Hope some more of these folks take part in future collabs this year!

maybe I havent been here enough but I almost see skorj as an enigma. He doesn't post around very much anymore but when he does it always strikes a chord with me. Theres just something about the JDM car scene that I really like.

Excellent shots all the way through! I have to look at it a couple of more times to really take it all in.

Bang on the money, TinTin. Skorj is many things, but an enigma and an amazing photographer are definitely two of them. He's absolutely one of my fave ever snappers and I rarely see a photo of his that doesn't blow me away. The disappearance of his beloved 665 hit him hard, but I have hopes that he'll recover in time and start posting more work here again in the future.

A hearty well done to everyone! I am unable to pick one shot as a favourite, there is just to much quality all the way through :)

Nah! you don't need that anymore. Maybe a mug of hot chocolate or chicken soup instead...

These are awesome. Thanks Ed and thanks to all for the inspiration! Becky that shot from the back of the train blows me away. I want this to be the year where I focus on my new M645 and then I see stuff like that pic that makes me want to head down that path - maybe my next 'lens' for it should be a lens-cap with a pinhole in it haha.

Don't worry, it's a metaphorical cigarette  ;)

The hot chocolate sounds good, though...

Quite an interesting collection. Most impressive to me, I think, is the sheer diversity of styles represented. Nicely done, everyone.
Any man who can see what he wants to get on film will usually find some way to get it;
and a man who thinks his equipment is going to see for him is not going to get much of anything.

Thanks so much!  Be careful going down the pinhole road...it will grab your soul.  I highly recommend it!   8)

Amazing and inspiring images, I'm embarrassed not to have contributed but the broadband fell over and my laptop died - next time!
It's unfair to name a favourite but that pinhole from the back of the train has inspired me to have another go.

I've waited to respond as I have been genuinely left speechless by the quality of this gallery. I am so so proud to be part of this. It's better than anything I've seen in magazines (real or virtual) ... ever I think. Well done everyone.

And, for me, I have to give special mention to my old teacher Lalo - what a trooper! looks painful ... talk about suffering for his art, or should that be making art out of his suffering? I hope all is better and you are back to good health now Mr Borja.

over and out.

I'm just getting to this now. Wow! Super impressed with everyone's work around here. So glad I could be a part of it. I'll be thinking about my "best shot" all year for the next go-round!

Great work.

I am especially impressed by some of the Lo-Fidelty photos with pin holes, expired polaroids, camera shake etc. Whenever I try this I just get bad photos. Respect.
