Tag: Top 10 2010 Photographs

I’ve been going through all the photos I took in 2010. I’m getting ready to put all the sub-folders in one giant folder. and clean up my computer.

I’ve been pulling aside my favorites from the year for several months. Out of the 12,000 plus photographs I took last year I  worked it down to 58 photos that I think are my best for 2010. From there I pruned it down to just 10 photographs. I chose these based on their technical merit. With each photograph I overcame some challenge, or mastered a technique, or timed the action or light just right to get the photo I had perceived in my mind or wanted once I saw the location.

Here are my picks:

1. Yosemite National Park

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Full Moon Over James Lick Observatory

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. 4,840 Seconds

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Great Egret

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. Yosemite National Park

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6. McGuire Peak, Sunol, CA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7. Mt. Shasta Sunset

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8. Swan, Santa Rosa, CA.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9. Sunset Pigeon Point Light Station, Pescadero,CA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10. Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, CA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was more challenging than I thought picking  just 10. I visited so many beautiful places throughout the year.

Would you like the see the original 58 and pick your favorite 10? I’d love to have your feed-back, and be interested in knowing which you

think are my best.
