I just did an expanded version of this on my personal blog and thought I’d share some of my favorite shots from this year on KB as well. But I’m paring it down quite a bit here and adding some details. (I tried to narrow it down to 24, like two shots per month, but couldn’t quite do it.)

If you don’t know what that means, don’t let it scare you. It’s actually very simple.

This is the first of a series of posts I’m going to do about photography. I’m going to approach this as if I’m speaking to novices with no knowledge beyond pointing and shooting an automatic camera. I’ll start off talking about framing/composition, and eventually get more technical in later posts.
