There's been a lot of photos posted that I really liked in the past week. There are always photos posted in this thread that I missed or failed to appreciate from the thumbnails. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to post here each week; and thank you to the kind people who have mentioned my work. I very much appreciate the mentions.

All the best to everyone for 2013!

I am so glad I discovered these threads, they are my favorite threads to look through on RFF! Thanks so much lynnb and leica M2 fan for the mentions; it is strange to see my photos next to so many amazing ones.

Now I will try to participate. There were a lot of pictures I loved this week; I will try to post the ones no one has mentioned yet, and then maybe go back and post some of the previously mentioned ones.
