I have weird taste so there are lots lol. Here's one that I absolutely love for many reasons and most are just wtf.
Any picture with Ultraman is okay in my book, ha! I like it. I like it's quirkiness. There's a lot of potential there. Just waiting to be discovered.

That's hard to imagine being unloved. I think it's hilarious.

I'll say this. I'm unaware of any photo of mine that no one else seems to find aesthetically pleasing that I in turn think is wonderful. I have found mostly the opposite. I find I'm harder on my work than others. I post a photo with my own reservations and then someone likes it or comments positively on it. Frankly I find that more often than this. I'm still digging through the photos trying to find one that got no positive reactions and still spoke to me.
Haha, there's that side of it, too. I have a few pictures on my Flickr and Instagram that I hate but people seem to like so I just keep them up. Like this one:





Instagram went wild for it (well, wild by MY humble standards) and I...don't get it?

Also, some good pictures and discussion here in this thread. Keep it coming.

I think the small format for pictures posted here works against most of my favorites, details and subtlety get lost. This photo has great textures and I like the juxtaposition of the runner maintaining a constant pace and rhythm with every feature of the bridge being repeated every twenty feet enough that I entered it in a monthly contest here for repeating patterns. Never got nominated.

Bad shots I can’t bring myself to delete from my files!

Lunar eclipse with a cheap point and shoot Sony digital.
Graduation shot on film using Pentax P3n with Vivitar 283 flash
Field shot on film with K1000.
Flower shot on film with K1000 and K 200mm with cheap close up filter.

Taken from my office chair. Incredibly ordinary, yet to me there is something beautifully everyday about how the light hits and is filtered through these curtains

Pre-emptive posting of this:



I know nobody else will like it, but I do. An ugly scene near my house (building a new, hideous subdivision) with a beautiful sky over it.

This is a hand-held long exposure of rush hour traffic that I took from my parking garage one rainy evening. I always liked the blur because it seemed to add a sense of chaos to things. But I guess not everyone felt that.

I love this. It reminds me of a painting my Grandma had in her home when I was a kid.

It is not that bad street photo for me but many viewers didn't like it due to sexist character of the picture. It is just a women walking with dog.
And look at that happy dog.

Not everyone likes fungus as much as I do. There are members in my family <cough>Tess<cough> who question why I even take them.
