As a photographer it’s always nice to look back and see how you’ve grown in your craft. As a wildlife photographer, it’s also nice to see how you’ve grown in your understanding, appreciation and interpretation of the wonders that nature throws at you. For me, this has culminated in an annual “best of” post on my blog at the end of a calendar year.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, I looked through my “best of” collections since 2010 and enjoyed seeing how I’ve grown in my craft, and also loved remembering all those moments in the wild so vividly. If our photography does nothing else, it should at least transport us back to a moment in time, and make us relive it for a brief interlude.<\/p>\n
