  • Salon 227 - Best of the best!

    Interest in this competition has been waning so we're going to do something different to attract more participants. This will be a "themeless" salon. Your mission is to identify the two photos you consider your all time best. Give it some thought and share the pinnacle of your finely crafted art. I'm looking forward to seeing what you select. Like the song says, "Hit me with your best shot!"

    1. All photographs are to be uploaded to the photo gallery at http://dpnow.com/galleries/

    115 views to date and no submissions. I was really hoping to see what everyone considered their all time best photos.

    Maybe it's time to put the salons to bed.....

    Ian, what are your thoughts?

      I think this is a very good idea and will start this off with:-

      Eye Eye




      The Street Singer

        Still trawling through my images. I think this salon needs an extra week.

        Come on guys! Forums are disappearing everywhere. Lets not let it happen here.

        Lets see some support.

        Ok ! My two.

            I'm not eligible but I thought I'd throw in a couple myself.

            Tulip Staircase



            Almost seems a shame to limit it to two shots.

                Very difficult choice. Probably not two of my best but certainly two of my favourites.

                    Great theme, Pat - very challenging to be honest!

                    But here's a couple that I'm proud of:

                        These are wonderful images. I kind of wish I had suggested that you post more than two. I can appreciate how difficult it is to narrow the choice.

                        One more day to submit the Best of the Best!

                          I'll get my wife to help me make a decision around 5 pm (East Coast US time). Still time for more submissions.

                            Tough choices!!

                            My wife and I both agreed that Garry's fox edges out the other fine entries although Ian's black and white image was a very strong contender.

                              Crikey! Really wasn't expecting that !

                              There were some very worthy entries in this salon.

                              Thanks Pat and your wife, for selecting my Fox and for running an interesting salon.

                              Right. See if I can come up with something worthy of the members.

                              Be back soon,
