Your Personal Favorites of 2009

Wow, what can I say, but this has been so much fun to see what you have selected for your own favorite image of 2009 (that you took). It was like getting a present every time I opened my e-mail. Thank you so much for sharing!

I find that often my favorite images are the most personal or the newest, and don't necessarily mean the same thing to the public as they do to me, but in any case, it's wonderful to have some insight into what you're lovin'. Aaron Hobson, wrote me, have you ever noticed that your own personal favorite never or rarely seems to be the overall "crowd" favorite? All of my favorites are never used, but it's the one's I found that I had a little less love for that get put on blogs or asked to use in publications. I find that very perplexing. Or maybe it's just me? I couldn't agree more.

There is no order here, it's just how the work came in, so make a cup of coffee, sit back and celebrate our rich visual community. If you really like an image, click on it to make it bigger, and even send your fellow photographer an e-mail. Here's a toast to all to good things happenning for Fine Art Photographers in 2010. If nothing else, we have each other!

Algunas de estas fotos son realmente interesantes y merece la pena investigar los trabajos de sus autores.

Un saludo desde España.

Such a great initiative and such great work to start the New Year. I wish I had sent mine.

Absolutely wonderful! Thank you!

Aline, This was a great idea--and a lot of fun to see everyone's selections. Best wishes for the new year. -Rob McDonald

Aline said...

Thanks all...and happy new year! It was so much fun, but I'm starting earlier next year...I was uploading on my way out to see Avatar!

Aaron said...

good stuff aline... and I hope you are seeing Avatar in IMAX 3D. There are really no words to describe the technology nor does it do justice to see it in a standard theater. I drove 2 1/2 hours to see it twice at an IMAX 3D.

Brandon Juhasz said...

From someone who blogs....that is a lot of work posting all those! Thanks for taking the time. Happy New Year!

Oh, and there are some gems in there!
