THE YEAR IN PHOTOS – 2011 Jon Hillenbrand, December 22, 2011December 30, 2015 In 2011, I shot more than 20,000 photos, keeping around 17,000 of them, at 343 photo shoots (not including physician headshots). Someone in my office suggested that I do a, “Photos of the Year,” but narrowing down 17,000+ photos to 24 or so that are the best is maybe too difficult for me to accomplish in one or two afternoons. So, I’ve narrowed it down to just under 200 picks. Where I can, I’ve added captions to explain what’s going on in the photo, my impressions at the time, behind the scenes photo setup info, etc. For now, enjoy this group of my favorites from this year. Thanks for watching. Check out the individual pics for the comments on Flickr. Photography 2011flickrphotographyphotosphotos of the yearthe year in photoswrapupyear end

Photography This is my face May 30, 2008October 17, 2019 So I shaved off my goatee a few days ago, and so far no one has noticed, not even my sister or mother. I know one person who will probably notice when I see her on Saturday. But she probably won’t say anything either because of the recent unpleasantness. The… Read More
