The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#1]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. two deer on green. It’s their complete disregard for me – or acceptance of me – that beguiles. I chose two deer on green because of the deer, the fog and the unnerving silence. I chose it because it represents a kind of stillness that is synonymous with creative confidence, a stillness […]
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#2]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. almost fairytale season. When I went to Stowe, Vermont in September of 2009, I was instantly a convert. Until then, Asheville, North Carolina had my go-to happy place — the Blue Ridge Mountains, the formidable arts community, the Biltmore’s lush and spacious grounds. I didn’t think that any U.S. location […]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. to better see you with. Well, no need to reinvent the wheel on this one. I wrote a bit about this photo back in July, explaining why it meant something to me. So, if you didn’t get to see the post then, you can click here and see it now. […]
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#4]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. School Bus. You know what would make for a great photo? A bunch of children taking recess in an urban setting, a playground, specifically – cement, not grass. Oh, and fog. In Houston, fog typically takes its last breath around 10 a.m., so the likelihood of that kind of […]
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#5]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. (Shot for Where Guestbook Houston.) The Game. I love baseball. Everything about it. The pacing, the grand slams, the pitchers duels. Crash and Annie, Shoeless Joe, Wrigley Field. Extra innings, rain delays and double headers. It’s about history, both the league’s and my own. For as long as I […]
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#6]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. Blooms and Bokeh. I’ll admit it. I’m less than enthusiastic about this year’s list. It isn’t that I think poorly of the individual photos in the countdown. I really do like them. I might even love a few of them. It’s just that on the whole they don’t resonate […]
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#7]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. a forest for the trees. This is an image that I created for a friend and his family. It was taken in Stowe, Vermont in 2009, but processed in 2010. I’ll leave it at that.
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#8]

©2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved deer xing. Lady Luck plays a huge role in my life as a photographer. I always say that photography found me, gave me a huge wave, and has allowed me to ride that wave for almost six years now, carrying me to wonderful “places” along the way. In 2010 […]
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#9]

© 2010 Katya Horner. All rights reserved. one tree, many muses. After taking some years off while red reigned supreme, blue reinserted itself into my portfolio in 2010, and it did so all by its lonesome, without encouragement or pre-planning. It just barged in, like those blues tend to do, and set a new trend […]
The Ones I Like List of 2010 [#10]

©2010 Katya Horner. All Rights Reserved. Houston. Work photos. I don’t often include them in these year-end lists. I don’t know why. I guess it has something to do with impetus and “get up and go” and inertia. Something to do with paying bills, administration, licensing terms. Something to do with “it’s all mine” – […]
