Because I like to organize things, I have a Flickr collection just for the pictures that I think are the best ones I took in a given year. Here’s the link to the 2009 set if you’d like to peruse them. :-)
Anyway, I’ve narrowed 2009 down to my favorite few nine pictures. I don’t really stick to one area when I’m taking pictures, so I tried to get a decent cross-section from different categories. Please please click here and scroll all the way to the bottom to leave a comment voting on which one is your most favorite–I really appreciate the feedback. :-)

mmmmmmmm…. A Handful of Light.
I know I’m prejudiced, but I love the one of Annie against the window. The play of light by her hands is beautiful as is the juxtaposition of color and black and white.
There were actually a couple you didn’t have on your favorites that I liked better, but for different reasons. Keep up the good work!
I would choose Sunrise Flight, I love the sun’s reflection in the water and the slightly blurred effect of the birds that suggests their motion. Happy New Year!
I like the Flowering Dogwood. Clean and elegant composition, lovely light, and gorgeous bokeh.
The first one (cameraphone) – it’s so precious and the little paw prints on the ground outside are an added bonus. Cute overload.
