I've taken around 9000 photos this year, which sounds a lot but I do take pictures almost every day and it includes many similar shots and ones of gear, camps, books, magazines, myself and other record and work pictures. Less than half that 9000 are photographs taken to capture a beautiful or spectacular scene. Here I'm posting my twenty favourites of those, with technical info for anyone interested.

My photo gear stayed the same all year, Sony a6000 and NEX 7 bodies with assorted lenses.. My most used lens was again the Sony 16-50mm zoom, usually at either end of the range. After that came the Sony 55-210mm and then the Sony 10-18mm. On and off I toyed with the idea of buying the Sony E 18-135mm zoom that was launched last January. I may still do so. On my GR5 walk I took the 16-50 and 10-18 zooms and missed having a longer zoom. The 10-18 and 18-135 sounds a good combination.
