Last year, I forced myself to pick my top five photos (ok, 10 total…five from my Canon DSLR, and five from my iPhone), that I had taken over the course of 2015. I thought it was a fun little project, so here are my top five (and only five…fine…five plus one, from either camera) photos from 2016.
The Missouri Botanical Garden is always one of my favorite places to take pictures, especially the beautiful Japanese Garden:
Our town square (which is actually a circle, but I digress), is always beautiful, but especially at sunset:
Another favorite photo spot is Forest Park, especially the view outside the Art Museum in the spring:
I took many pictures when we were in Chicago last May…this is my favorite lakefront/skyline shot:
Back at the Botanical Garden, and the always-photogenic Climatron:
And because I can never leave well enough alone, a bonus picture of a sea-lion, mid-wink, following the sea-lion show at the St. Louis Zoo:
This list is a little different this year, because not one picture of our family made the cut. I did get a lot of great photos of the children in 2016, but really, they deserve a category of their own…it’s just too hard to choose!
