Your Best Shot- sent via Twitter

By kika on July 13, 2009 8:34 AM

Two days ago Youngna directed us to My Best Shot, an interview series in The Guardian in which photographers are asked to recall their most truly memorable images. Youngna then put forth the idea that all photographers must have these eureka moments and invited you all to send us a link via twitter of your very own best shots.

Cue Pat Benatar's Hit Me With Your Best Shot while I share with you a few of the "best shots" we've received so far.

@pleyades was the first to respond with her eerie night image titled Loiterers, seen below:

Not long after, @GarciaLachner sent a link to his website with some knockout photos taken in Costa Rica.

We then received replies from @marcievargas, @revbean, and @getthebubbles, all directing us to favorite images of theirs -- a clandestine subway portrait, an emotional woman and a foggy sunset over a bay.

Photographer John Cranford, also known as @withfilm submitted this summer portrait of a young man splattered in mud by the side of a lake, seen below.

@Ishootsrockstars, @zaidasofia and @_frommetoyou all cued in soon afterwords; click on their usernames above to see their own best shots.

To all who replied, thanks so much for sending us your images! Keep them coming, too; just reply to us including @heyhotshot and send us a link to your favorite image.
