It’s time to show off my favorite ten photos from 2012. I was blessed this year to shoot in some of New England’s most beautiful places, and as these photos show I occasionally lucked out with some great light. It’s always a challenge to distill an entire year of work down to ten images, but I think it’s a great process to go through. I spent much of this year working on a video projects as well, so I’ve included a couple of my favorites from those projects too. Enjoy!

  1. Thanks. Particularly liked the video on the Northern Pass issue. Heard you talking about it on top of Washington last winter but this video really brought it home. Must be stopped!

    • Thanks David. Unfortunately,. I think the Northern Pass saga will continue for the foreseeable future. I’m hoping to do some more work on this issue in 2013, so stay tuned!

  2. Thanks for sharing, your pictures are amazing!! I really like the Star trails in the night sky above Little Lyford Pond Camps. What was the exposure time on that one?

    thanks

    Happy Holidays
