This is my contribution to the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge: Favourite Photos of 2019.

I considered a few themes for the challenge but in the end decided to just go with a selection of my favourites for the year.

A January thaw saw this Ivy appear as the snow melted.

Late March and Colpoy’s Bay is still frozen.

Ice at sunrise.

Early June and a male Purple Finch in the yard.

Mid July and an Orange Daylily photographed with a 25mm CCTV lens adapted to fit a mirrorless camera.

Early September saw me down on the Colpoy’s Bay shoreline 45 minutes before sunrise so I could do some long exposures. This is a 60 second exposure to allow the clouds to move across the sky.

Six Word Saturday, a sixty second exposure at dawn.

The end of October saw the autumn colour mostly coming to the end while a few trees held on to their leaves.

Mid November saw me down on the Colpoy’s Bay shoreline at sunrise where breaking waves had splashed over a bush to form this ice sculpture.

Och, dat vogeltje! Zo mooi … , onbeschrijfelijk mooi … , geweldig prachtig zangvogeltje, dacht ik. Ik moet die dingen uit zoeken, ben géén vogel-laarster …, nee … Lieve David! Met de allerbeste wensen voor een gezond en gelukkig 2020. Ik kom vlug bij je terug, om alles nog eens nauwkeuriger te bekijken. Ik ben zelf nu ook lekker met licht en lucht bezig, boven de Kostverlorenvaart. Doei!

Thanks Frieda. Some winters the Purple Finches stay around here but not this winter.

Oh what marvelous photos you have on display!!! You had a wonderful 2019 in photography. 😀

Thanks Cee. I tried to pick as varied a selection as possible.

You do breathtaking magic with Colpoy’s bay but I also admire the ivy photo

Thanks Laura. The Ivy is growing over a boulder at the end of the driveway so it gets a camera pointed at it quite often.

Ah, breathtakingly beautiful images, David! My favorite has to be the ice sculpture!

Thanks Leya. Yes, the ice sculpture was a nice find. Each time I’m down at that section of shoreline I check for another one.

Gosh, a wonderful selection. I love the bird and the frozen sea.

Thanks Susan. I tried to go for as much variety in the photos after using a selection of cameras and lenses over the 12 months.

Excellent photos. Good eye. Love the long exposure. Best wishes for 2020.

Thanks John. All the best for 2020.

Fabulous shots, David. I especially love those “blues” in your long exposure. Have a great 2020! And thanks for the “heads-up” on the Reader glitch!

Thanks Patti. You have a great 2020. The WordPress Android app seems to be getting worse. Since a recent update it won’t open some posts without me hitting the reload button on this tablet.

Ugh. Do you have to reinstall the app??

I tried reinstalling but the result was the same.
