Looking through my image database, it looks like I took something over 120K images this year - a new record for me. I am looking forward to the FT1 lens adapter so I can use this camera body with a telescope. Also at the end of the year I added a Nikon 1 V1 (mirrorless) camera body with the 10 mm f/2.8 lens, the 10-30 mm lens, 30-110 mm lens, and the 10-100 mm lens. This year I expanded beyond my Nikon cameras and lenses - adding a Leica X1 and Leica V-Lux 30 P&S cameara. NAS did add a couple of lenses to the kit (500 mm f/4 VRII and 600 mm f/4 VRII telephoto). It is hard to believe that I have been working long enough to even consider retirement, but then again maybe I could spend more time working on photography. I also attended a work sponsored executive retirement seminar. We ended the year achieving (and exceeding) all of our objectives. We shut down our San Francisco operations which included part of my group, and thus no more regular trips to California. There have been a number of challenges at work. I then attended a Workshop in Death Valley, also lead by Michael Mariant. This started in San Diego, and then stopped in Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama (including a transit through the Panama Canal), Costa Rica, Honduras, Belize, Mexico, and ended in Fort Lauderdale. This was followed by the Ultimate Travel Workshop II on the Semester at Sea M/V Explorer lead by Michael Mariant. We will ignore the extra few days we were held hostage in southern Chile. The year started out with a great photography trip to Patagonia with Thom Hogan.
