It is that time of year again and time to look back over the year.
Post your favourite pictures from 2024
Note.
The pictures must have been taken in 2024 and it would be cool to have Exif.
This is not a C&C thread so just comment on content please. And absolutely no downloading and reposting altered please.

A walk around Liverpool docks
Finally, The Liver building through the end of an anchor (Liverpool again)

Nice idea for a thread!
I was quite pleased with several of my photos this year.
Here's a few selected from some posted here in the last 5 months
A shot of the mountains in the Hochkönig region just appearing out of a thick bank of low hanging cloud.
Our tracks leading up through the valley. It’s hard work to be the first and create the track yourself in the deep snow.
A view of the old city of Krumlov just over the border from Austria in the Czech Republic.
Taken in Riedingtal with some great autumn colours and even some contrasting snow at the top.
On the way to Pronebengut, Mühlbach, Austria
In England, Essex, with Wakering church in the background
In the Dedham area in "John Constable country"
On the beach at Clacton
Back in the Hochkönig region some photogenic B&W cows were sitting down taking a rest, chewing the cud or perhaps just enjoying the view
OK, let’s scramble up there!

Due to an accident a couple years ago, I have taken no arty-crafty or travel pictures this year.
A few weeks ago, I did resurrect the Lumix DC-G9, Mecablitz 20 C-2 flash and mounted the Panasonic Vario 12-35mm zoom lens. Here is a hand-held snap of the dog, se llama "Tortilla" ...
... thank God for the flash (f/16, 1/125 sec, 6 ft) and for the Panasonic dual OIS (lens and body) ...
