Nice stuff everyone! Always nice seeing everyone getting out and doing things.

My camera spent more time in the closet this year than it ever has before, but here's a few that I like:

Somewhere on the coast:

I was off my feet for most of the year courtesy of a tick, but I did manage to get some shots prior. This was without question my worst photography year ever.

And for a total change of pace:

(this is the first picture I've ever taken of a person that I actually like. I'm a landscaper by nature. :p)
 
It this is your worst, please post away with the good stuff! :D
Well, I meant in terms of volume. :p
School kept me bottled up for the beginning of the year and I came down with ehrlichiosis in July, so I really was able to shoot only from April - July (with one solitary trip in which I hobbled outdoors in October.)

I'm actually pretty satisfied with a couple that I posted in terms of quality.

Maybe sometime I'll post my "bests" in the photography forum.

Trying to get a 2MB pix on, but site only takes .1MB. Anyway to cut back the number of pixels?

ps - I assume the normal cut-&-paste works here?
