As has become a tradition over the last few years, I am showing twelve pictures from the past twelve months that were important to me. The self-portrait above (which doesn't count against the twelve) gives an indication that this year was very different from any other I have experienced.<\/p>\n

Especially for a people photographer like me, the covid pandemic severely limited what I could photograph. No life on the streets, almost no concerts or theater performances, and no travel. So this selection of pictures will be a little different from those I showed in previous years.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

There is always something to photograph, but I certainly missed seeing old friends and making new ones, learning about new things and taking part in great events this year.<\/p>\n
