I have this yearly habit from all of my years working as a journalist of putting together a end of year wrap-up. So this has been a busy year for me with a lot of poltics, travel, wedding photography and gardening.
Please visit my end of year gallery at http://www.jaybryant.com/2009pics All of these photos were taken with my iphone.
Here are three of my favorites:
Waiting for Obama’s Train in DE:
New York’s Wall Street Canyon’s:
And flying over Iowa:
Traveling this week to the midwest with a stop first in Chicago. Chicago is one of my favorite cities.
I stopped into see John Cary and shot this pic of his glasses at sunset:
I spent three days in London and a bunch of the photos are here:

I took a detour on my way to CES to visit my parents in Central Nebraska this month. As I get older I am doing one of the great photographer tricks of re-visiting previous locations to update the images.
Hordville, NE is a very small town about 30 miles from my hometown of Grand Island, NE. I did a documentary project on Hordville while I was in college that resulted in one of my portfolio images of this grain elevator (shot on Kodachrome).
So 25 years later I came back and not much has changed in Hordville. There are more photos located at http://www.jaybryant.com/hordville
The photo below is from the Hordville post office and reflects the imact of Walker Evans on my documentary style of photography.
