This is my first year end review post. I began the blog in October 2009, and in October 2010, I did a one-year anniversary post. Following that with a year-end wrap-up 2.5 months later seemed a bit self-indulgent. So this year, I’m looking back to the last 15 months since that anniversary post, with a personal favorite from each month. These are not necessarily the ones that garnered the most comments or traffic, nor are they even the ones I deem the best. They are literally my favorites.
I also want to link to a pair of photo essays inspired by the death of Osama bin Laden in May of this year, We Got Him and The Hole In The Sky.
Finally, before scrolling down to my favorite 15, you can review [nearly] every image I posted here in 2011 by watching this video, which lasts about 6.5 minutes. I only left out the images from the OBL essays linked above, some photos of garbage that NYC failed to pick up for about a month last winter following a big storm, and two sets of iPhone subway portraits that just would have made the video unbearably long.

4 Jan 2012Thanks, Alleycat. I didn’t even notice the typo until I read the fix. Funny how our eyes can fix something on their own. Best wishes for 2012.
