Theme Day: Best of Year

Happy 2012!
Today, January 1, 2012, is Theme Day across the CDPB (citydailyphotoblog) world-wide community. Three years ago yesterday afternoon, at about 4 PM, I posted this image of this bridge in the snow at Deering Oaks. It won't stand as my best of this past the year, but for one who tends to lean a bit towards the nostalgic this time of year, it rings true and is purposeful.

  10. What a brilliant way to start your blog three years ago Birdman and such a meaningful way to celebrate it today. When you click to enlarge, it's a magical Winter wonderland image. Congratulations and looking forward to another year of images and words, very best wishes for the new year. and btw it serves me right for thinking I could drink four glasses of champagne and get away with it, I'm such a lightweight haha!
