I have been reorganising my images from the last several years and have made a collection of the images I have taken I like the best.

Out of over 100 images I got about 14.

Perhaps part of imaging is to take lots of images as some just don't catch your
fancy at the end of the process and others fall in your lap.

Greg,

That's a very fine group of images smile I like all of them.
The Venus transit shot with the jet is very cool! Was that one one of those "happy accidents"?

I think the more one images the higher the standard they begin to set and some of the images start to not meet our expectations,which is good I believe as it makes us improve.

I was checking out your equipment pages and all I can say is WOW 8O You have put together an amazing collection of gear!

Excellent work,

Jason

I really enjoy your work Greg. This really is an excellent assortment of top-shelf images. Thanks for the tip on my Horsehead image!
Cheers,

Hey Greg,

This is a lovely group of images indeed. I do remember someone once saying that one has to shoot a hundred pictures to get one good one. So if you got 14 good ones out of a hundred, I'd say you're doing great! grin

That is a very nice set of favorites. I enjoyed looking through them.

Have you thought of printing and framing any of them? I have found some good internet sources for large prints and frames up to 30 inches that are reasonable.
