This thread is always the best of the year - great shots everyone 
Here's one from a series I took for a family friend who wanted some photos of her horses (seven!). I'd never photographed horses before, and it was quite a challenge to capture something that looked a little different to the norm.
One of the few times I've planned what to do and managed to carry it through - hence my best of 2007 choice.

If you've ever seen Nat Geo's Crittercam series you'll have an idea of what I'm doing here; placing a crittercam on a Humpback off Maui!

Wow, that is incredibly impressive Scott. I hope to see more of your great whale work in the future!

Dang it, Floris! All the hummingbird shooting I've done, I've never gotten anything like this. It's GREAT. The posture and the lighting. Well done. I'm jealous.

Guess I misread the theme, and posted a favorite, as opposed to a best. So I try again....

Great stuff, all. I chose this image as it captures (to my eyes) the feeling one gets exposing
yourself to the magic of the "Bosque".
:-) Great exposure. By both photographer and subject :-)

Here's one of my favorites this year. This little Kinglet sat right in front of me for a brief moment and dished up a good pose. They're usually bouncing around all over the place....cheers...Don
