This year's favorite photographic moments include the reaction on the face of my wife, Lori, when she realized she had received a brand new Canon 70D for her birthday; an impromptu visit to The Spaghetti Warehouse restaurant in Ybor City (near Tampa) when, as it turned out, it was their very last day in business (sad face); a flight on the Orlando Eye on International Drive; and perhaps most importantly, a shot of the historical building (formerly a hotel) in downtown Orlando where I signed the short sale papers to officially be rid of my condo property that was horrifically upside down on the mortgage.
