My favorite pictures of 2009

I love taking pictures. I love capturing a moment that makes me happy and being able to look back on it later and have it take me right back to that moment. My favorite pictures are the unposed and unexpected pictures. The kind that occur when the subject either has no idea that their picture is being taken or has only a moment or two to process that fact and so has no time to pose. These are some of my favorite ones from the last year. All of them are natural.
