Favorite Photos From 2006

These are my favorite pictures of 2006, as taken by my dinky yet surprisingly effective Kodak Easyshare LS743 camera:

The view of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, taken December 25, 2006, from the 68th Street Pier in Brooklyn.

Jolee blows out the candle on her birthday cake.

The first of many soccer action shots:


Look at that hair fly!



Jolee takes aim in an after-game kick-around.


Sunrise in October, standing in the middle of 92nd Street.



First day of school, September 2006.


Jolee posing with her namesake, a Lynx (Hawaiian: Linkea) at the American Museum of Natural History.

Jolee at the Temple of Dendur, Metropolitan Museum of Art, August 2006.


The view from some great seats at Camden Yards, Baltimore, August 2006. Perfect day for baseball. That's Derek Jeter trotting home after hitting it out.


Melanie took this one. Yankees' bullpen ace, Mariano Rivera, just after releasing the ball.
Shayna took a skating spill. McKinley Park, Brooklyn, July 2006.

Jolee at the Bay Ridge Independence Day Parade.
