Photo of the Year - 2011

SDP  6-6-11
Happy New Year!  After much discussion, the SDP staff selected this as the 2011 Photo of the Year: a great blue heron with a fish head which had been tossed into Sarasota Bay by a fisherman.   What a fun capture!  As for my personal favorite for the year, which wasn't posted on SDP, here it is: Roger Federer on Centre Court at Wimbledon -- amazing!  I hope everyone has a safe, healthy and prosperous 2012.

This is the first theme day of the year for the City Daily Photo community.   Click here to view thumbnails for all participants

I love this one, great choice. But you have many to choose from. I like Federer also.

Hard to beat this one. Great picture because of the subject, the colors, the composition and it's sharp as a tack!

Happy 2012!

This is terrific, SRQ. The details are so clear, it feels like he is in the room with me. Get that bird and fish head outta here!

(Love the Federer shot, too.)
