Of all the photos I took this year, these are my ten favorites, unranked and presented without comment. I will say, though, that I was surprised that three of these were basically portraits (the Cowboy and Biggs; Montgomery, thoughtful; and Erin Rae on Matt’s porch); I don’t think of myself as a portrait photographer, but I do think of myself as someone who likes to capture quiet intense moments, and all three of those are that.
