Err, I think I'd better re-jig the text a bit there!  What I mean is
it's probably the best photo I'VE ever taken.  But of all the photos
anyone's ever taken, I reckon it easily makes it into the top half :)

Tough question, but I think my all-time favourite photo would have to be
this one:

Not a very good quality jpeg file, but you get the idea.  Perhaps a bit
unfair as only about 20 people have ever had the chance to take the
shot.  But it's an extraordinary photo, of history in the making, one of
mankind's most superb achievements.
