Jeff's Top 10 (or 16) of 2010 (and '09)

Choosing the best of your work is tough, and not just because it's hard to be objective about your own stuff. Photographs are slippery things. Some appeal one day but not the next. There are mysterious rhythms in composition that sometimes bear fruit slowly, only after repeated viewings. Sometimes it's difficult to put your finger on why a picture works, but you keep coming back to it anyway. Most of these photos have bubbled up through my portfolio over time and continue to engage and surprise my eye.
