Bring It On, 2019! - a photo on Flickriver

Bring It On, 2019!

            I usually photograph the fireworks display each new year, but it seems to be quite overcast and has been raining the whole afternoon, so there is a good chance the rain will ruin the fireworks display.

But I still wanted to take a photo to welcome 2019! And here we go! 

Found my dad's helmet when he was still part of the U.S. Air Force, and it can be symbolic for another year of great battles and lessons.

I have had a lot of great memories from this year, great experiences, great photos that I'm proud of (in fact! I still have my Formula 1 backlog! I need to upload raceday photos from the Japanese Grand Prix still! Thus, I didn't get to reach my goal of uploading them all before the turn of the year.), and now I am looking forward to what 2019 can bring!

This helmet over my lenses is symbolic that I have survived 2018 and am ready for the challenges of 2019!

So happy new year my Flickr friends! Here is to another year of great photography from all of us! Keep shooting!
