Wow. Every time I take a picture and think "That's not bad" I visit these threads and.. well, I have a lot to learn.

[markmullen]

It's been quite a quiet year for me, haven't been able to get out much due to other projects taking a lot of my time.

Did you know what the temple is a replica of Dave, I guess they explain it in Epcot?

If not, here's photos from my visit to the real thing in the centre of Beijing - https://flic.kr/s/aHsjPnsrgS

Have enjoyed this year - starting by going from a d3100 to a d7000 and ending with going to m43. Lots to learn as always as I sell of the Nikon equipment and learn new things

Apologies for second fawning post in quick succession,

But FAO: PBLP - Buttermere is a favourite place for me for various trivial personal reasons and I recognised that view instantly - you have mail

The level and diversity of talent on PH is insane!

Shot this while I was still in the RAF, wasn't really sure what I was doing but fancied giving it a go:



Then left my job in March to shoot cars full-time (armed only with one body/lens and a tripod!):





Shot a couple of things in between as well just to keep my hand in with other forms of photography, but liked these two.

[Morbid]

Amazing stuff guys, I must practice more in 2015...

1. My son Finley (who has been my main victim subject this year):

Thanks to those on PH who persuaded me that using raw was worthwhile! Took a while to get the processing worked out, but very happy with the results (number 5 only one here from raw).

[Rib]

stunning images guys! will look into mine later for you, Learnt and moved forward a HELL of a lot this year as I start to take things more seriously. shooting in RAW has been a revalation too.

[andburg]

amazing

nothing of note here
but I'm doing a lot of reading and trying new things other than point and click so hopefully will have something to post of my own 2015!

I look forward to this thread every year. The quality PH members puts out is much better than most photography focused forums/communities!

I've had a bit of a weak year this year as I've been busy but I will change that in 2015!

[johnxjsc1985]

I have never posted on here and it pretty unlikely I ever will but I do enjoy spending time on this thread some wonderful photographs thanks to all the posters

[gforceg]

I'm still in the very early stages of trying to improve my abilities but I've picked these because at least they came out more or less as I saw them. Any brick-bats or encouragement welcome.

Hopefully next year things will have moved on a bit.
