Thought this was very well done.

Some of these are stunning!

I'd totally forgotten that Benedict died. He just wasn't on my radar, or probably most people's, for so long.

I finally got a chance to view this today and it utterly wrecked me. My emotional shields are a little low right now, so not the best time to look at something like this. What a fucked up year. So many needless deaths.

I love this. I had forgotten about some of these things.

ETA: a picture from my town is in there! wild to see my little town on this list.

Thanks for posting. I always appreciate these summaries. What an awful year this has been in so many ways.

I was surprised to see two separate pictures with not just women I know but have already seen or will see this month. I’ll mention it to the second one.

My city is the first photo in Time’s year in pictures. I posted a bit here about the fire when it was happening.

ETA: it’s is also the photo in CNN for August 18. I hadn’t made it that far in their pictures to see it.

That was a tough viewing.

Aug 20 had a gem. If you want to laugh, google for images of emerald downs t-rex race.

Took me several sittings to get through them all, but a truly remarkable collection of photos. Some are so impressive, some are heartbreaking I always forget how much news happens every year. TFS.


ETA: nature is incredible, people and war are horrible, climate change is so bad & I feel so helpless

Yeah I completely agree.
