written by marije on 2013-03-20 #gearOkay, I admit it: I am a little bit scared by SLRs. All those settings, all those possibilities...

2012: A Year of Analogue Passion
written by bloomchen on 2013-01-10This last year was my first full year in this great community. I got in touch with very nice and interesting people around the globe and I saw many many great pictures which in fact wasn´t helpful for my bank account. I was really inspired by a lot of shots you took and so I badly had to buy this and that and try this or that. But thanks a lot for the input. Here, I want to show you my favorite shots of the last 12 months, one for each month, which is pretty hard to choose. You won't miss my best failures too, and the ones I like from the best of the community.
