Listography : Top 5 Photos of 2011

7 Comments

I’m glad that Kate’s Listography this week has eschewed the temptation to ask about our New Year Resolutions — if only because I don’t believe NYRs!

No, this week Kate has asked us to choose our five favourite photos of 2011 from amongst those we’ve taken. This I like! I could easily do a lot more than five. So I decided that I’d give you my five favourite 2011 flower photographs from my Flickr photostream.

1. Crocuses (taken in our garden in February)

2. Jonquil (taken in our garden in March)

3. Peony (taken at Kew Gardens in May)

4. Hebe (taken in our garden in July)

5. Hollyhock (taken in Chipping Norton in September)

The Peony and the Crocuses appeared in my photobook (see on the right).

Enjoy!

Have a great 2012!

This is the final week of my 2011 52 weeks challenge of a photograph a week, and I thought I should end with a self-portrait. So here I am with Harry the Cat enjoying some quality time.

I’ve now done two years worth of “52 weeks” so it’s time to take a break from it and find something else to make me keep taking photos. There is no escape!

Have a happy and prosperous 2012!
