Best Photos of 2023: My Favorites of the Year /  by Todd Henson

2023 has come to a close, and with that closing opens an opportunity to look back at all the photos created over the coarse of the year and select my best, or favorites, of the year. This is always a challenging task. Some years I may struggle to find 10 favorites. Most often, thankfully, I struggle to narrow the selection down to just 10. But this editing process is always worth the effort as it helps teach us to be honest and critical with our own work, something that’s worth learning and improving over time. And perhaps it may reveal patterns in our work.

Below you’ll find my selection. You can click on any of the photos for a larger view. Below each photo are links to the blog post where I first shared the image as well as a link to my online store where you can purchase the photo as wall art or on a variety of different products like puzzles, cards, bags and more.

Best Photos of 2022: My Favorites of the Year /  by Todd Henson

One of the things I enjoy about the end of the year is looking back at all the photos I’ve created and trying to narrow them down to a small set of favorites. In most years I’ve chosen just 10 but for 2022 I decided to up that to 12. There are 12 months in the year so why not 12 favorite photos? Granted, I didn’t choose a photo from each month, but it’s interesting to see which months ended up more productive as far as favorites are concerned.

If this is your first time viewing these then I hope you enjoy them. And if you’ve seen them before then I hope you enjoy the look back.

Best Photos of 2021: My Favorites of the Year /  by Todd Henson

This time of year is when some of us look back at what we’ve created and attempt to pick out the best of it, or at least our favorites. So today I’m sharing my 10 favorite photographs created in 2021. Some years it can be a challenge to find 10 photographs worthy of showing, and others it can be a challenge to narrow them down to just 10. Thankfully, this was a year when I had more than 10 to choose from.

If this is your first time seeing my work, thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy it. And if you’ve seen these all before as they were first posted throughout the year then I hope you enjoy this brief look back.

Click on any of the photos for a larger view. Below each photo is the name of the image and a link back to the blog post where it first appeared, along with the month I created it, and a link to purchase the photo as wall art or on various products (the puzzles are very cool).

Storms on Jupiter, March (available for purchase)

And there they are. I’m happy with how this collection turned out and I hope you enjoyed viewing them. It’s been another tough year for many, but I’m happy to report it’s been a relatively good one for me. Any year I can create and share is a worthwhile year. And I very much appreciate you spending a little time here. Thanks very much!
