As the New Year approaches, we thought it appropriate to look back at the work featured by photo-eye Gallery in 2015 and ask our staff to share a few of their personal favorites. When you have the privilege of working closely with so many gifted photographers it can be challenging to narrow the selection down to only a handful of favorite images. Here is a small collection of the photographs that intrigued us, moved us, and left their mark in 2015.
