I reached 2008 having spent 4 or 5 consecutive years in which most of my free time was spent on photography. Since then, I have been taking photos only occasionally, and posting them online even less. But in August 2016, my love of photography started to reawaken, and it was in full swing by October, partially inspired by the purchase of a new macro lens (Canon 100 mm F2.8L).

Here are the results of my long-delayed return to photography. I just moved from NJ to Philly a week ago, so there will be more photos on the way.
