Best and Worst Photos of 2008

Best and Worst of 2008

Greyscalegorilla and Coudal Partners are asking people to contrast their best and worst photos of 2008. I took over 12,000 pictures this year (wow!) so I immediately narrowed it down to just pictures I had uploaded to Flickr. That got me down to about 2,200 (so "worst" for me was "worst that I decided to share with the world anyway" -- I'm sure there are some wretched photos in that 10,000). Thanks to Erica and Disco for helping me get it down to two.

On the left: a crosswalk in Seattle, August 2008
On the right: Ken Barnard at a Lola Balatro video shoot, September 2008

I won't torture you with my other possible choices for worst, but here are the other photos that I considered for best (I would have made a shorter list, but I didn't have time).

I worry for my aesthetic when I think your two worst are pretty freakin' awesome.

TWO worst? Nono, the one on the left is supposed to be the best.
