It's hard to believe that 2013 is almost over!  During the past year, I had the opportunity to travel to many new locations and was lucky enough to have great light almost everywhere.

The images below are a collection of my favorites from 2013.   I'm really happy with each of these images and feel they are a good representation of my work in 2013.  I hope you enjoy them.
