The holidays are a great time for reflection – time to appreciate the good in our lives and be thankful for what we have. This has been a trying and enduring year for all of us, but there are brighter pastures ahead.
The ‘holiday spirit’ is more important now more than ever. With all that said, there’s another big part of the holiday culture that I know all of us enjoy – gift-giving, right?! There’s nothing like opening presents under the tree with your family or receiving that one thing you really wanted. It adds to that holiday feeling.
I didn’t ask for much this year, but my gift requests are always a bit unusual. When my wife asks me what I want for Christmas, and I say, “a helicopter drops off in the middle of nowhere in Alaska,” she kind of just rolls her eyes at me.
But, what do you expect from a photographer? We all have locations in mind and photos we want to capture for the year ahead. Call it a ‘photographer’s wish list’, if you want. And in my opinion, getting an epic shot at one of those places trumps any physical gift!
So, without further ado – here is my landscape photographer’s 2020 Holiday Wish List. Hint: It can be yours too!
