As the title says please post your favourite picture you have taken this year and why?

I'll go first. Try and follow this format

Picture:

A Journey in life by jonneymendoza, on Flickr

Caption:
I climbed a mountain in the Philippines with just a pair of flip flops. it was difficult and a struggle as i was carrying all my camera gear with me and tripod as well. Just like my journey to the top of the mountain to get this shot, it is like a journey in life. You will have things that will weigh you down. things that give you a disadvantage but if you continue to climb and move forward in life, you will be rewarded.

Reason:
Both the journey to even take this picture as well as how the actual image came out easily becomes number 1 pic i have taken this year by a long shot.

Many of my other pics only required a tiny effort just to go to a particular place and take it but this was hard. Climbing a small mountain in flip flops in 30c temperature with a backpack full of my heavy lenses and camera(5d3, 70-200f.28, 16-35 f2.8) is no easy task and the view as you can see was breathtaking!

cheers thanks!

This is not a critic thread either because a persons favourite picture could be just a blank wall! If that person has a story to tell behind that blank wall that makes it his or hers favourite shot of the year then so be it!

The story of the image and its surroundings can help decide what your favourite picture of the year is.

This thread is not a strictly *whats your most viewed/liked image ever* but simply put it, what is "Your" favourite image :)

This is my pick for the year. Just love the feel, the contrast of the colors between the subject and background and their expressions are just great fun.

I also like it because it proves that quality isn't everything, composition and subject matter much more. This was taken with one of my cheapest lenses (55-250) through a car window! :)

would have been better if you taken it using a ultra wide angle lens :) :D

Jonney, I like it just as you originally posted- after all, it's a story, not a landscape.
