Contest: Favorite Images of 2009

I spent some time over the holidays sorting through the images I made during 2009.  We didn’t take as many trips as usual and I didn’t get out with the frequency to which I am accustomed.  Our little dude Jackson, who is now 9 months old, is to blame.  Not that I’m complaining.  I’m not – at all.  Adding Jackson to our family is the most amazing adventure of my life.  It isn’t his fault that he’s just so damn cute I’d rather lie on the living room floor stacking wooden blocks just to watch him knock them down than go out and photograph.

Even without traveling like gypsies I still managed to make a few decent images this year.  I was in the process of narrowing them down to the top 5 when my friend CAZ suggested that I let my friends and fans make the selections from a larger group of photos.  Brilliant idea, CAZ!  So, I sorted through all my photos to select the top 15 for a gallery on my Facebook page.  I tried and tried and tried to limit it to 15 but in the end, I couldn’t do it.  So, I posted my top 17 images.  Nice round number, eh?

You’re probably wondering, “Soooooo, what’s the contest all about?”  Here’s the scoop: Votes are being accepted on my Facebook page until Jan. 8, 2010.  After that I’ll tally all the votes to select the top 5 of 2009.  Everyone who voted will have their name thrown into a hat.  I’ll have my wife draw one name from the hat and that person will win a framed 12″ x 18″ print of their choice from the top 5 photos.
