It's time for the Photo of the Year. As usual, I'm the only one allowed to enter and the prize is an all-expense paid trip to Keokuk, Iowa to chase eagles, which I hope to do sometime in the next few weeks.
Previous POY have something in common; with the exception of one unfortunate fish in a supporting role, birds are the subjects. Although I was tempted to award the POY this year to the mountain bluebird from May, I decided to go mammal this year with a Rocky Mountain Bighorn from December. There are some leaping bighorns from this same sequence, but I decided to go with the portrait.
Here are my POY selections for 2002-2008.
 Junior I 2002 |
 Gentoo Penguins 2003 |
 Little Brothers 2004 |
 Bald Eagle 2005 |
 Blue Jay 2006 |
 Eagle with fish 2007 |
 Great Horned Owls 2008 |
I hope you win!!!

Your brother Greg sent me to your website and from there I found your blog... he thinks you would like one of my "bird in snow" images... it's posted on my blog at photoaddictshowcase.blogspot.com as the first post from February... and there are quite a few other bird shots as well although today's post is a street scene from our recent blizzard.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, congratulations on the BIG win of the 2009 photo of the year contest... magnificent image (and yes, I do realize yours was the only entry)
