There is no shortage of photographers posting their year-end “Best of 2011″ posts. And as I would scroll through these inspiring posts of so many others’ yearly accomplishments, I’d sigh some, wondering if I’d ever reach ‘that’ level of amazingness.
But then, I got this brainy idea to post my own, to reach back through my year. I realized, good or bad, amazing or not, I really needed to ‘see’ visually what I did in this past year. And, wow, I’m so glad I did this. 2011 flew by faster than I could’ve thought, and when you are just busting through workloads and schedules you lose sight of the ‘greater’ pictures one is painting in their craft. Did I get better? Did I learn anything? Did I push myself to grow?
It wasn’t until I started sifting through my Lightroom catalogs and pulling images into collections that I realized the breadth of work I did in this past year. It gave me a renewed vigor to start this year out. So I’m sharing them here, broken up into several different posts, so that I can look back in a year (as I’m doing my “Best of 2012″) and see what new artistry hurdles I’d like to cross in the coming year!
