I had hoped to put this together much earlier but there was a backlog of photos to back up and I didn&#8217;t want to start this until everything I&#8217;ve worked on over the past year was accounted for to make sure that I didn&#8217;t miss on a single shot. I took somewhere around the vicinity of 20,000 photos this time around which is about a third of how much I took in 2011 so I can definitely say this was a much quieter year. That said, I think it was one of those years where I probably grew more as an artist because I was a lot more focused on making good shots instead of just making a lot.<\/p>\n<p>Again I want to preface this list as being my favourites. They may not be technically or artistically the best but for me they are photos which have struck a chord in me. I hope they invoke something inside you too.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"highslide\" onclick=\"return hs.expand(this)\" href=\"https:\/\/imigence.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/best2012_001.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-280\" alt=\"best2012_001\" src=\"https:\/\/imigence.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/best2012_001-1024x631.jpg\" width=\"567\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imigence.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/best2012_001-1024x631.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/imigence.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/best2012_001-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/imigence.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/best2012_001.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 567px) 100vw, 567px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>#1 Ending Moments<\/em><br \/>\nThis was obviously a heavily manipulated shot as took this out in the field in the middle of a game.
