Looking Back,
Memories Of 2014
As the New Year begins I like to take a look back and share my favorite images of the previous year.
Are they my best?
That’s too subjective for me to decide. What they are is a selection of favorites from another year long journey looking through a lens. Most you’ve all seen before, some are being shared for the first time. One or two aren’t even all that great, photographically speaking. The stories that go with them as what make them special.
Without wasting another minute of your precious time, in somewhat chronological order, here are some of my favorite memorable moments from 2014.
(For your viewing pleasure, I’ve included a slideshow of these images at the bottom. Enjoy!)

Spectacular, each and every one!! I can’t wait to see what you capture for us in 2015 :).
It really has been a pleasure watching you grow as a photographer. So glad you’re getting recognized and published. Let’s hope there is more of that in 2015!
You certainly won’t hear me complain about it! 😉
Magical collection…so inspiring ☺
Very beautiful and on the last picture — it looks mighty cold there!
It was, though not as cold as you might think. It was however cold, with some freezing rain a couple of days before I hiked the mountain the fire tower is on.
It made a beautiful photo (just brrrr looking).
I can’t even pick a favorite! You are very talented !
Then I guess you’ll just have to enjoy them all. 😀
Fabulous photographs. As I have only recently discovered your blog, I appreciate this opportunity to see these images from the past year.
I’m happy to have you along. I hope my photos in the coming year live up to your expectations.
On this evidence alone, I know they will. 🙂
All absolutely amazing! Thanks for the pics and have a Happy New Year!
Thank you! You’re welcome. And you too! 🙂
Utterly amazing shots! I can’t wait to see what you do this year.
Thanks! Me too!
I adore all your images, they have brightened up my world. Hard to pick out a favourite amongst these beauties but I do like the Aurora Tent (Pink) and the hot air balloons as one that is not a fantastic landscape. I look forward to seeing where your lens takes us this year. Have a good one Jeff 🙂 You are one extremely talented photographer.

Thank you, I’m glad you’re having a hard time picking a favorite.
As for the two you did single out, the aurora shot was one of my most sought after shots of the year. I don’t normally do a lot of night sky stuff, but that is going to change in the coming year.
With the balloon, I’m constantly pushing myself to see photographs everywhere. Landscapes are easy, get up insanely early, be there when the light is the best, press shutter button. The non-landscape subjects are not something I find as easy to see.
Seems like we are all forever learning 🙂
the mist over the sea, the aurora upon your tent, the leaf with droplets and that frozen house are forever favorites of mine! I love seeing them every thime! thanks for sharing them again! Happy New year! and Happy Shooting! 😉
Thank you very much, Julie. It makes me happy to hear your “forever favorites” list continues to grow.
I’m sure you’ll add a few more to the list this year again!
Really great shots, looked like you had an amazing 2014 photo wise.
I’d like to think so. Thank you.
These are absolutely gorgeous!! Wonderful gallery!
Thanks Kristen, have a Happy New Year!
A good year…A very good year.
I can’t even think of judging one of your great pictures. They are all just inspiring.
Well then, just make it easy on yourself and like them all. 😉
😉
A marvelous collection Jeff. Wishing you a happy new year.
Thanks, to you as well.
what a glorious year you captured with your camera….that first shot is breath taking….and I just love the aurora shot with lit tent in foreground….your year looks like it was so much fun 🙂
I do think I had a pretty awesome year. One that I hope to top in the coming one.
Breathtakingly memorable! Wishing you a very happy new year and looking forward to seeing the world through your eyes in 2015 🙂
Happy New Year to you, Andrew, and thank you.
Stunning photos Jeff
Beautiful shots of 2014. I look forward to see what you produce this coming year.
Magnificent photos… All the best for 2015!
Tanks and same to you!
Looking forward to 2015!
Beautiful images, every one.
a delightful collection! i made the mistake of not backing up my files for a while, so all my favourite images of 2014 evaporated into cyberspace when my hard drive stopped working….
a hard lesson learned well. but these views. thanks for sharing.
Ouch! I’m so sorry to hear that! Fortunately I have yet to have an HD failure. Which is a very good thing because for a long time I was very lax with any sort of backups. Now I use and external HD and cloud backup as well.
Best wishes for health, happiness, peace, and prosperity to you and yours for 2015!
To you and your family as well. I hope you have a marvelous year to come.
That room with a view looks pretty cold…
They are all breath-taking, Jeff, little subjectivity required 🙂 I think my absolute favorite is the Pink after Dark picture.Those pink lights dancing in the night sky are just so mysterious and surprising; particularly contrasted against the other two colors in the photo.
Thank you. Getting a shot of the aurora has been a bucket list item for some time. Definitely a highlight of the year.
I am entranced by the aurora pics I’ve seen but not sure whether I’m motivated enough to travel up North in the winter to see them….I let people like you do the dirty (err….cold) work 🙂
No problem, glad to be of service. To be honest, you’re not missing much, at least as far as what we see of the aurora here in NH. Since humans don’t see color very well in the dark, all of the pink and green pillars of light you see in that photo looked like white pillars. Occasionally some of the green could be seen very faintly, but for the most part is was basically colorless.
Fortunately digital cameras are not color blind in the dark.
From what I’ve been told, if you get really far north, where the aurora is much stronger, you can see much more color with the naked eye.
Stunning collection 🙂
Wonderfully beautiful !
Fantastic set, Jeff! I really like the b&w and panoramic crop of the the stream and the book cover sunrise. All the best for a fantastic 2015!
Thanks Pat. That B&W is one of the few images that I’ve actually “seen” as a B&W from start to finish. And the book cover was from last Julys hike up Mt. Washington. And it just so happens to be the cover image of a book of White Mountain themed poetry.
Thanks again, I hope you have a great New Year as well.
These are absolutely stunning!!!
Have a great 2015 Jeff. What a superb ‘Best Of’ for 2014. Wonderfully varied. Makes you want to be there in every shot!
Whether or not you consider these images the best of your 2014 collection doesn’t matter, IMHO. They’re still gorgeous and no wonder you favour them … 😉
Great shots one and all, and not a clunker in there… 🙂
Hot air and sillouettes is my favorite. Balloon looks like stained glass and gives the ground a unique glow.
Happy New Year and best to you in 2015, Jeff! I remember some of these photos and am glad to see them again.
That first one … is it new? It is incredible!!
Thanks LB. No, the lighthouse photo isn’t new. It is in fact from my first outing back in January. On one hell of a cold morning.
Dude…
Care to elaborate? 😀
Sorry, it was just that I was finding it hard to leave a comment after I saw your collage.
Each photo is so uniquely different and amazing on it’s own accord. Your photos touch me in ways that maybe one day I will tell you but for now just know that they brought me great joy.
Thank you.
That is easily one if the nicest compliments I’ve ever received.
Wow, really?
🙂
Thank you!
Now I got myself thinking of that line from the movie “As good as it gets” When Melvin fives her a compliment…
……….
MELVIN UDALL: You make me want to be a better man.
CAROL CONNELLY: That’s maybe the best compliment of my life.
MELVIN UDALL: Maybe I overshot a bit to keep you from walking out.
lol
My mind runs weird sometimes. 🙂
Really! I truly enjoy all of the nice comment my images receive, but to hear that my photos may have more meaning or illicit a more deeply felt emotional response, that is wonderful. That my work, any of it could have that affect is humbling.
Then I am even more happy… I mean… happier that I wrote what I wrote. 🙂
Thank you!
I ❤ all of your photos !
