Some crazy good stuff in this thread!

My humble contribution:

Wow beautiful shots!!!

Had a wonderful trip to YSNP and GTNP's and got some good captures of the iconic scenes, but I especially liked the mood in this B&W.

Cheers,

This is one of my favorites in 2012.

Wow, we have some really awesome shots being posted in here. I have been looking through some of mine from this year, I don't know about you guys, but man, it's hard to pick one out. I have lot's that I like for different reasons. This one I will say stood out because it was a shot I had in mind for several years and I finally was able to capture the Redwoods with the Rhodies with some fog... I hope the photo matches my joy in finally capturing this scene.

lovely shot Jim.

JIm, nothing like a driving persistent vision to spur you on
An exceptional replication of forest beauty.

From Rickett's Glen State Park in Pennsylvania this fall. This one made the cover of my yearly calendar I make from my images. Guess that is a good enough measure of what my favorite is...

Every singel photograph in this thread is remarkable! Incredible work everyone.

New here and anxious to learn, such beautiful images all.

Wow! some good work in this thread. Not to the level of most of the work here, but this image of Denali is one of my favorites from 2012.

Hope you all have a good holiday season!

Wow some fantastic stuff in this thread, as expected

Hard to pick one shot out of a year but I've been after a great lightning shot for ages, this year I got two wit this one being the most spectacular.

I'd chased the storm right across the city, been out on the hills exposed, on the beach, soaked. Shot this from home whilst I sorted out some washing.
