I have been selected to have 10 of my photos on "display" in Art Drawers at a local Big City art gallery (the photos are 12" x 18" mounted and viewable to the public by opening the drawer). This will be the first time any of my photographs have been on display for the general public.

My dilemma is they want me to select my favorite for display on the wall. I can't decide as all are in the top three depending on what I am feeling at the time.

Which is your favorite?

Cape Perpetua and Fairy Falls for me. B/W is a niche area IMO and I might quite go for The Sentinel if it were in color.

Picking top photos is tough. People have different tastes and moods, and some folks will make different choices on different days. And that's OK.
 
I voted for Cape Perpetua in the contest and it's still my favorite. It has more different elements combining beautifully than the others, so there's just more for the eye to wander around.
 
Boy, you've got a tough decision on your hands. I love them all! But I'd say Cape Perpetua or FairyFalls, although I also love Quiet Time!
 
Perpetual fairies, if you see what I mean...
 
Fairy falls! Great picture!
 
Tough calls and not in any particular order. I like B&W and I think people do find mist/fog in a serene location pleasing so I'll go with Quiet Time. Light Curves is unique and Cape Perpetua is dramatic.

Cape Perpetua is fantastic. You feel the same way because you listed it first :) But I lean towards Crater Lake. I feel it’s dramatic and love the hard whites and blacks.
 
Cape Perpetua at Blue Hour and Wahkeena Dressed in Fall Colors are my favourites. These two make an interesting duo, with flows starting in the distant background at the top of the frame (traffic and water, respectively) and then winding through the frame to find themselves exiting in the foreground at the bottom of the frame. I know you need to pick just one, so if I had to go with either of them in isolation, it would be Cape Perpetua.

Light Curves is also a strong contender.
