@derangedvision's Photography Contest - My Favourite Shots
I know the title is supposed to be 'best' shots but I'm not a photographer and I'm not sure how to place a definition on 'best'.
So with respect, I'm just choosing my recent favourites but to hopefully improve them a little over their original form. This will involve simple tweaks in Google photos and a little cropping and / or straightening.
For transparency, some of these photos have appeared in their original form as illustrations in previous posts and were all taken on a cheap Mi smartphone.
Hope you like them and as always, thanks to @derangedvisions for running this great community where I'm learning so much and trying to put a little more effort into my snaps!
Obviously Amateur, so if the Pros have any advice it would be gratefully received.
The most recent image, taken very close to home a couple of weeks ago at sunset and unlike the others, is completely untouched. Here because the colour of the sky was simply incredible.
Taking at Kings Cross station, London at Christmas, I just adore this amazing roof and with the colour and snowflakes projected up onto it made it look even more beautiful.
Taken at a lakeside restaurant close to home, I cropped this to make it look simpler whilst still retaining the gorgeous colours. I love this photo!
There had to be food pictures! This is Tom Yam Kung, freshly delivered to the table and I've no idea what they burning in the warmer but it certainly wasn't an Ikea tealight!
The wholesale flower market in Bangkok is amazing, the scents and colours filled the senses. I again went for simple with these carnations.
This shot at dusk taken of Koh Samui is here because it luckily came out so sharp that it's easy to see the moon, and what I think is Mercury, highlighted in a cloudless sky with a beautiful colour graduation.
I love photos that can transport you back in time as I feel this one does. Taken at the National Railway Museum in York, which helps, the subdued tones really take you back. You can almost hear the clock ticking!
The wife on the boat from Samui at sunset. I had to get in one of her as a 'favourite'. Happy wife, happy life ;-)
This was taken at Mo Chit MTR (underground) station in Bangkok and I just love the colours and reflections, as well as the message!

Great shots! You have an eye for the little things. Especially the lines of the wires in the first one give the picture some extra. You made a good selection of different types of photography. Good luck in the contest!

Great entry @nathen007 😎 good luck in the contest!
I like the railway clock and the flowers the most. Than the purple things…
You do see the right angles 😁 keep going.
Thank you so much! I actually like the light in the cage by the lake! Don't know why but life would be boring if we all liked the same stuff!
You are so welcome @nathen007 😁 yep, good point. It would be too boring if we all would be the same. Or liked the same things hahaha
Have an awesome Saturday 👋🏻☀️
Great shots. I wish I could have some fresh Tom Yam Kung right about now.
Come on over, Ill get a few prawns and a sachet of Knorr lol ;-)
All the images has a story behind it so it was just so fun enjoying the view, I will say you are a professional amateur, hehe because I think these photos are amazing.
@hopestylist what an absolutely lovely thing to say. That's made my day :-)
Thank you for dropping by and I hope your weekend has been full of happiness and joy.
You're so so welcome Nathen.
My weekend has been fine just stressful. Thanks for your concern 🤗. I hope you have a beautiful weekend too.
You took great shots and each picture was very detailed. The last pic is my favorite as its colorful decoration and reflection is very appealing. :) I would love a Tom Yam Kung now for the cold winter days, yum yum 🙂
Excellent entry and good luck :)
