As I was putting the lid on last year’s image library (which basically means I was moving the files off my computer to my 3 backup locations), I came across lots of images that I really love but hadn’t shared. Let’s face it, when you take 40,000 images a year, not even a loving mother will sit through them all. But here are 20 moments from 2010 that caught my eye the second time around.
I was able to go home for the Thanksgiving holiday and had a chance to see a bunch of family. My niece Jordan, who I thought was actually shy…is NOT! She never got tired of posing for the camera, losing to me at thumb wrestling, or being the only clue-giver in charades. It was great to see my uncle Kenneth, who is 60 but looks all of 45. And my grandparents reminded me that they met when they were just weeks old (they were neighbors). I think they can count the time that they’ve been apart in their entire lives in months. I also finally built in some extra time during the drive to my mom’s house to photograph some of the great scenery along the way. As sleepy as the town of Deale, MD is, it can also be absolutely beautiful.

Jordan struggled to keep the camera/grip/flash steady and got a pretty nice shot in the process.
Granddad, still as sharp as a tack. We can always count on him to stay out on the porch until we turn the corner onto Gwynns Falls. I love that he has all the signs of a grandfather: belt + suspenders, zip-up sweater, eyeglasses in the shirt pocket (and a cell phone).
I love this man….
Awesome, Dana. Love this!
In October, I had an image published in Digital Camera Magazine! The mag, based in the UK, is actually my favorite photography magazine of the dozen or so titles that constantly litter the floor of my office. The image is of a pretty well-hidden stained glass window along the High Line park in Manhattan. Someday I may print it very large and hang it in my office. But for now I’ll just enjoy it on page 14 of Issue 104. It can be seen in the original gallery here.
Congrats on getting published. I love viewing your photos; I’m glad many others have had a chance to see your work as well.
Congratulations! How did you choose which of your thousands of photos to submit to the magazine?
Congratulations Dana!
Fantastic news — congratulations, well done!

In honor of the fact that I saw the movie, didn’t completely follow it, and am actually not yet sure whether I liked it or not…but am STILL thinking about it…I thought I’d throw up a tiny slice of virtual inspired by the Maritime Hotel in Manhattan.
