2020 has been quite a year. For my part, I’m full of gratitude for all that went well—globally and personally. I’m also deeply aware of all that has not gone well on a global scale—literally and metaphorically—for so many people.
And yet, I believe every passing year deserves some sort of recognition, perhaps especially years that are so full of hardship. And so I decided to seek a snapshot from every month of last year. My way of expressing my sincere thanks to 2020 (particularly for that 2020 hindsight) and giving 2021 a hearty welcome.
January: Jacques-Louis David’s Death of Marat at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium
February: Loire river on a mild February day
March: dramatic early spring weather in my “backyard” (and the only photo I took in March)
April: apple blossoms
May: a mini frog
June: a blackbird’s egg, hatched
Juli: a hike along the Viamala
August: the river Reuss
September: sunrise at the Brienzersee
October: the vineyards above Baden
November: election results
December: moon, Saturn, Jupiter
