Adventures with My Son II – Deer Crossing the Merced River

If inspiration is what you’re looking for then the following 200 “Best Photos of 2014″ entries should keep you busy for a while. As with years past Best of Photos project entries there is some amazing new talent to discover. I continue to be amazed that this blog project attracts so many talented and passionate photographers. Participants spanned a spectrum of skill levels from hobbyists to professionals and covered a wide variety of genres including landscape, macro, nature, photojournalism, portraiture, event, wildlife, fine art photography and more. There are likely many names you’ll recognize below, some famous, and many others you won’t. I highly recommend visiting each entry as I have.

If you’d like to take part next year and be informed when submissions open for the “Best Photos of 2015″ blog project add your name to my mail list. You won’t be spammed. I send out newsletters quite infrequently.

Thank to everyone who took part! I hope reviewing your best photos of the year and comparing them to years pasts keeps you inspired and aware of your progress as a photographer.
