Great Photos

Alex from Every Day A Photo blog has listed his Top Ten Photographs of the Year on his other blog The Earl of Essence. If that sentence confuses you, simply go here and see Alex's photos.

Here's a link to my first Alex post.

Alex really has a way with the camera. He got a CanonSXi for Christmas, deservedly so.

Photography Exhibition

Sunday afternoon we took in the Earth from Above photography exhibition outdoors at the Perth Art Gallery. The photographs by Yann Arthus-Bertrand focus attention on the sustainability of our planet through aerial photography of regions in strife and regions of great natural beauty. Australia's coral reef and islands, Iceland's volcanoes and warm springs, America's Yellowstone National Park, and the English countryside were all featured in the display.

My favorite and then John's (though it was really difficult to choose):

Shutterfly and All Its Greatness

I did it! I got all the 1,000+ photos from this year gathered together in organized sections, sorted through them, selected the best 100, made decisions about which ones would be full page, and which ones grouped on pages, then opened Shutterfly.
Shutterfly is a miracle website for people who want a physical copy of their digital pictures. My daughter-in-law and I use it year round to send cards and photos, but we especially love it once a year when we make Granddaughter Ella's photobook for that year. Beginning in her first year of life, we have made three books so far and look forward to compiling an annual book of her photos until the last one which will be her wedding year or her university graduation year or some date in the far future. Here is one of my favorite photos from this year's book: (click on it to see just how adorable she really is)

Wonderful Photography

Every Day A Photo is Alex's photo blog. He's an amazing photographer. As now it's autumn in New England, many of his photos are leaves and trees and color. Since it's every day a photo, his photos are seasonal. Look back over them. He's posted over 300 so far. I hope he never stops.

This one is my favorite.

Or maybe this one.
