2025 was a year. That said, I was able to squeeze out 100 photos I liked well enough to make this post. My hope for 2026 is that I take more personal photos than I did this year, which I readily admit is the goal I have pretty much every new year. Still, it’s important to make it an official goal, right? I also hope 2026 doesn’t just turn out to be 2020 part VI, which very much feels like what the last few years have been. Maybe next year I’ll have ChatGPT write my intro into this post so it makes me seem a lot more exciting than I actually am.

My formula for year in review posts since 2021 has been to choose 100 images I took that did not come from paid work. Each image is numbered on the off chance that anyone has a question about a particular image. Feel free to leave a comment and I will do my best to answer.
