quiet and foggy 

sunrise, was more of an overall increase in levels than straight up rays

Top Ten

Below are 10 of my favourite photos from the year 2024.

in no particular order 

10

the view from our skiing accommodation in Furano

9

always something special about pulling into (or away from) our local airport

8

Snow and Monkeys - a great combination

7

shadow showing the partial solar eclipse hitting a headlight selector switch in the car

6

Chippy resurfaces, and chills in the back yard; after disappearing for the last few years

5

delicious ramen lunch - I just love the colours and the tone

4

Aurora - from the front yard

3

empty chairs - misty - simple lines - love it

2

I normally travel with a small 'fixed-lens' camera, but knowing that this excursion would present itself with some awesome opportunities, I brought along a proper body and longer lens as well... we were handsomely rewarded with some of the most photogenic moneys ever. the heavy snow was just a bonus :)

1

on location for a film, in one of the most magical looking locations I've been to for quite a while.

the misty conditions are completely man-made, but the sun is real.

Bonus

I don't know why I like this photo so much - but it makes me smile every time I look at it.

Happy end of 23, may 2024 bring even more fun :)

3 years, 8 months, 13 days...

but at least I have this view for the recovery :)
