I’ve been trying to pick one photo taken in 2009 to be the “photo of the year” but can’t seem to do it. I’ve narrowed it down to 4 photos. So, here are the 4 2009 photos of the year:
*one way - February 10 - while riding my bike over an overpass on the way to visit the dentist, I noticed the symmetry of lines just as a snow squall hit.*
*longview - June 27 - Taken during day 1 of the 2009 Ride to Conquer Cancer, at the last rest stop of the day before reaching camp. The sky in southwestern Alberta is astounding, contrasted with the lush green grassland.*
*start of day - November 5 - taken along the 32nd avenue entrance to the northeast corner of the University of Calgary campus, showing the activity of morning commuters, and the construction site for the EEEL building.*
*dalhousie station - a cold and wet c-train platform.*It was a fun year in pictures. I did the 365photos project again, joined the @dailyshoot project, got published in a photobook of local Calgary photographers, and had a bunch of photos published. Fun stuff.
I’m really happy with how 74 photos turned out - here’s my 2009 5 stars gallery - and am really glad I’m learning so much about photography (both technical and philosophical) and still having a blast doing it.
