Best of 2010

The new year kicks off with the theme Best of 2010. For me it is always the people I meet and the portraits I shoot that are the highlight of the year. It would be impossible to pick the best one as they are all great, but here is one fun meeting. The Summer Wedding. And if you would like to see the other portraits have a look at the 140 first photos in the slideshow.

My best photo from 2007

I realised that it would be tricky (or impossible really), to pick one photo from you guys as the best photo from 2007, so I decided to show you my best photos, not according to me, but according to the people at flickr. There's a secret mathematical algorithm that decides the popularity of the photos, taking into account views, faves, comments and what have you.

Here is the top five, with the latest stats from December 31th.

The Lunar Eclipse. 17 000 views. 60 faves.

Autumn Wallpaper. 4000 views. 85 faves.

Winter in Sweden. 7300 views. 194 faves.

Guess what season it is. 960 views. 26 faves.

The view from my finger. 4900 views. 17 faves.

And from those five, my personal favorite is the winter photo from Ålsta. I took this in mid November after the first snow fall. It shows a house at Ålsta in Tungelsta where a Mr. Wall lives.
