Top Shots of 2021
By David Stenhouse, Data Mutz
2021 was quite the year in photos for me and I would like to share what I believe are the best shots for this amateur photographer. After taking thousands of photographs this past year, I thought it may be difficult to pick out my favorites, however it ended up being pretty easy.
I start with what I believe to be the best shot of them all—nothing comes close. A great street scene during a “Cruise Enumclaw” Friday evening in Enumclaw, Washington. The rest of the photos just fall in line with no rankings. Clicking on the below link will bring up the gallery to see the full versions. Enjoy!
