2011 Favorites

It is always very difficult to select a set of my annual “favorite” photographs. I inevitably find that I have left out photographs that others like a great deal, and I know that I include some that I like but which may not appeal as much to others. And I always want to include more! :-)

With that in mind, here is a group of slightly more than twenty favorite photographs that I made in 2011. Criteria for inclusion, loosely and subjectively applied, included: a desire to include a wide range of my work, what others told me they liked, photographs that have positive personal associations for me, and element of randomness.

There is a story behind every photograph that I make. (As anyone who has talked to me about one of my photographs probably knows – I can go on… and on… and on… about any of them!) If you want to know more about any of the photographs, you can click on them to go to the original posts here at the blog. And I’d love to hear your reactions to the set, along with any questions you have – there is a place for comments at the bottom of the page.

I hope you enjoy my 2011 Favorites!

Jim M Goldstein’s Gigantic “Best Photos of 2010” Meta-List

For the past few years photographer and blogger Jim M. Goldstein has been collecting and sharing an annual list of online photographers’ “best of the year” posts. (More and more of us make this an annual event around the time of the New Year – I posted my 2010 Favorites list a couple weeks ago.)

Today, after what must have been a very complex organizational task, Jim posted his Best Photos of 2010 list. It now includes the work of over 160 photographers – yes, I’m in the list – and if you take the time to follow his links you’ll find a wide range of photography including some stunning and compelling work. If you have some free time (or your boss isn’t looking… :-), wander on over to his link and enjoy!

2010 Favorite Photographs – One More Time!

A reminder that my 2010 Favorites page is available – it includes some of my favorite photographs from 2010, compiled with the help of readers. (It seems like the first work day of the first work week of the new year would be a good time for one last post about this.

And now it is time to start work on the 2011 favorites…
