This has been one of those years that will be celebrated more by its ending than for anything that happened during the year.  Photographically, several of my favorite places were in bad shape due to weather or weather caused problems.  Others just had a sameness to them that didn't provide enough inspiration to share.

That said, I did manage to get some photos out of the year that I'm quite pleased with.

I was able to add some interesting insects to my collection

There was a young bald eagle:

And then there was the series of photos I made the dock at Lone Lake under water, which worked well in both color and black and white:

So, not much to show for a full year, but definitely some keepers.

I don't know if this counts as a post-script,  I noticed there was one photos that I like that I hadn't uploaded for some reason.  Here it is:
