Not seeing a Best of 2015 thread, so I'll post this here.
I've narrowed down a selection of my memorable images and moments from the past year. This shorty photo was the only local nature image that made the cut.
Great shots, Max. I love the "Godzilla" pose of the iguana. You must be in very good shape to be trekking at 12-14,000 feet in search of the snow leopards.
Max, that shot of Mustangs fighting is excellent. I would have liked to trade places with you to grab a few shots there; I can imagine that would have been cool to see.
Thanks Bill, Jeremy and Tyler. Jeremy, if you ever plan a trip out to Yellowstone between early summer and fall, get in touch and I'll send you directions. It can be a pretty reliable spot for horse action, but the key is to not get stuck in the mud (I've learned that the hard way).
Bill, the Himalayas were certainly a challenge, but I'm not in super shape and did okay after Day 1 at high altitude. Well, with the exception of one hike where we had to climb about 1000 feet (so, from 13K to 14K) in half a mile when the first snow leopards were spotted. I don't care to repeat that climb while carrying all my gear. Other than the altitude, the cold was the worst part. I thought I was getting good advice at REI, but should've trusted my instincts and brought more layers.
