The past year has been filled with challenge to say the least, and my travel plans like those of so many others was put on hold as a result of the coronavirus. Yet it did provide ample time to reflect and review past images and adventures, and to plan for future trips as we all look forward to a better brighter year ahead.
Here I’ve selected a few of my favorite images released in the past year. These are not necessarily my best or most popular, but each represents a special moment in time in which the beauty of this amazing world (both natural and man-made) passed before my lens.
Please share and enjoy! And feel free to let me know your thoughts. You can click on any image for a large high quality view, to learn more about it or share individually. I look forward to your selects in the weeks ahead, and most of all I wish everyone a healthy and Happy New Year!
