Photo-A-Day 2013: Top 25 Outtakes — January Through June

Since I’ve fallen behind a bit on updating my Photo-A-Day project — not behind on taking photos, mind you, but merely on working them up and getting them into the blog — I figured I’d drop this post with 25 selected outtakes from the first six months of 2013. These images were all in consideration for best photo of their given day, but fell short. They were worked up and ready to go, so I present them here in a gallery format. To see each image at full size, simply click on it in the gallery!

Enjoy!

Photo-a-Day 2013: Week 8

After a brief delay thanks to work roadies to Miami and Chicago, I finally got a chance to knock out some of the photos from the past couple weeks. Good news is, between this post and the next Photo-a-Day weekly recap, there will be plenty of Miami and Chicago to go round. Enjoy!

25-FEB-2013: No that's not a vignette around the edges of the image. It's actual steam on the lens of the camera from the humidity in Miami Beach.
