I enjoy this thread too each year and I encourage everyone to add to it!

As usual most of my shooting was done on dedicated photography trips, with guides. Even though I live in an incredibly photogenic location, when I'm home I often prefer to go biking, hiking, or cross-country skiing! Then I get my photo "fix" with a week of intensive shooting on a trip, with a few buddies of mine.

This year I went to Costa Rica, Alaska, and the Pantanal of Brazil. Here's a selection:
