As it was this photo which gave me the idea I suppose I'll get the ball rolling.

The CMS and our wonderful son Callum on the way to the top of Catbells in the Lake District in September 2013. Shot on a Yashica 124g and Kodak Portra 160VC.

My girlfriend Angi getting her safety briefing when she did a skydive last year. She raised £1500 for the MS Society in total. I think this photo was taken at the exact moment she thought "holy s**t, what have I signed up for?"

Edit to add: shot on a 500c/m on Ektar 100 developed and scanned by Photoghost.

She also looks like she's thinking "Jeez, that guys hair is ridiculous" :D
 
Well I've always like this shot of my girlfriend\wife as it's a typical day out at a British seaside (probably Weymouth) in the 60's...had to have the guy with a hanky over his head in the shot
Poor man's slide film i.e. Perutz and very grainy after scanning.
 
Me on holiday in the mid to late 90s (probably). The weather had been so bad that I was reduced to taking a photo of myself "looking out for better weather", camera being the trusty old Konica FC-1 and possibly the standard 50mm or 40mm lens. This was originally a colour photo and was one of a number of Fuji colour negs I printed in b&w when I still had my darkroom. It's square because I used it as an avatar on another site.

My Son. He very rarely poses for photos now, he's "too cool" for it. But occasionally, i'll catch a rare moment. This was in Costa Adeje, Tenerife.
Canon AV-1 (awesome camera) on Fuji Colour Super G plus 400 - Expired.

A very low res scan of a shot taken of me as a very young man with cycling friends from the Ellan Vannin Cycling Club at our "Christmas Ride out" to the Hawthorn Pub in the Isle of Man

Early 1980's as I was a young teenager.....drinking bitter that used to make me sooooo poorly:puke: :beer::puke:, but hey I believed that I had to keep up with "men"!:confused::thinking:

I continue to have contact with the guy stood behind me who still lives on the island .....although different categories ( due to age) we regularly trained together for race events......Happy days:)

A really good shot Simon... or should I say Goldfinger. :D
 
Congrats Simon...I have a few shots where the air shutter release plunger was showing :(, but it works in your shot to prove it was a selfie (y)
 
Well deserved win Simon even if the person in the shot could have done to have done to have been a delicious brunette......maybe next time eh?:D
 
Well done Simon. A very good photograph.
 
Agreed, definitely the star of the set!
