Gallery: Your Best or Favorite Photo from 2021
For our December 2021 Photo Quest, we asked our members to look at their photographs from 2021 and pick a single “best image” or personal favorite and share it with us. In this gallery, you can see all submissions that we received.
Thanks to everyone who took part and made the difficult decision to pick just a single photo from an entire year’s worth of images! We hope you enjoyed reflecting on your photographic year and enjoyed the “exercise”. 🙂
Our monthly Photo Quest is a members-only online activity. At the beginning of the month, we announce a theme and (usually) ask members to make a NEW photo which shows/interprets the theme. A couple of times per year, we may ask for “archive dives” instead of new images. The announcement appears on our website (past Photo Quest themes) and the submission link is sent out to our members via our mailing list.

we really have some good photographers in our group
Seeing these great images could be intimidating! I’m learning, though, so it’s good to appreciate the accomplishments of others. Thanks to all those participants for sharing.
