OK, I realise that it may be a bit late for 2012 summaries but we've already established that I'm constantly behind with this blogging malarkey so there's really no reason to dwell on my shortcomings any further :-). It was a pretty intense year for me both personally and professionally but also a very rewarding one. Here's a collage of some my favourite shots from the past 12 months:
And since next to photography music is another huge passion of mine (and I get to work with quite a few musicians) I thought it would only be fair to compile a list of my favourite albums and songs from 2012. It's something I do every year cause a) I enjoy making lists; b) it's interesting to revisit these choices in a couple of years and see which of these albums/songs stood the test of time.
