Excellent collection, beauifull photography, the quality and composition is perfect, it validates that 80/90% of what we get comes from you the photographer, regardless of the tools used.It's getting towards the end of the year and I thought it would be fun to post some of our best / favorite shots from the last twelve months. Only post images you captured this year and please keep it to eight photos or less (I know, it's tough if it's been a busy year). I can't wait to see what you captured. I'll start with some of my favorites

number 2. Don’t know how you got such an amazing image in those conditions!I saw a lot of amazing photos that inspired me to share some of mine.
This year for me, was not one of my best. I started a fantastic adventure in the Northway in February, but after that, I did not have enough occasion to take photos.
I hope to be lucky in the following years.
By the way, here are some of mine.View attachment 52200

Thanks, Roy.number 2. Don’t know how you got such an amazing image in those conditions!
Thanks Joe! The Galapagos was a wonderful adventure but a week wasn't enough. "Ecologically naive" is the term now used by the naturalists: I could closely approach many of the animals, even without the long lens.Great set. You took wonderful advantage of your trip to capture such abeautiful set of images!
Thanks, Ralph!All great but That white-dolphin shot and the night heron shots are awesome
Thanks, Craig!Love the last one of the Night-Heron and the lighthouse!
Thanks so much, Joe; I'm happy you like my photos. I know there is more space to improve, and I hope to learn something to do a better job this year.Beautiful set of shots. It is good to see such shots from place I will never get to visit. It is inspiring and enjoyable to see such variety and quality of images!
Great set of photos of one place of my dream. I lost an occasion to visit Svalbard the last year, and now I'm the first person on a waiting list for a trip in 2024.Wildlife favourites. The big problem with selection is often the most memorable moments may reflect the encounter rather than the photograph itself. Here are a few highlights:
An arctic fox in Svalbard - taken from a rocking boat using a 500mm lens and cropped..

Polar bear in Svalbard. I have close up portrait shots but these better represent his activity:

Several days on Mull were spent watching this mother care for her young family:

Finally some magical hours watching short-eared owls in horrible light:

There were many more lovely encounters both big and small - in my garden and in South Africa - maybe a second shortlist to follow!
Easy choice for me I love that Yellow Warbler in the concrete pipeI think these are my favorites, but its hard to choose!
