Saying Goodbye to 2011

Twenty-eleven was a pretty amazing year for me, full of many concerts and weddings, traveling, and new experiences. I got the opportunity to backpack through Europe for the first time with one of my best friends, testing my navigation skills and ability to adapt to any situation, while completely stepping out of my comfort zone. I was given a wonderful camera to explore my interest in photography which opened the door to second shooting and assisting for Shannon, a Wedding Photographer. For the first part of the year, I got back into racing for the first time since 2008, and, after 24 years of living in the Bay Area, finally ran B2B. Last but not least, I was able to make it to most of the concerts and festivals I had my heart set on, minus Outside Lands (I guess that is one I'll have to put at the top of my list this year). Needless to say, I couldn't be more thankful for the experiences I have had this year, and can only hope this year, 2012, will be just as giving. To commemorate the pasting year I have put together some of my favorite photos. Au revoir 2011!
