That said, I will try to do what I've done with other photo narratives here, and tell a story of 2008 in photographs. It's not the<strong> </strong>story of 2008, it's certainly not all stories, but as a collection it does show a good portion of what life has been like over the past 12 months. This is a multi-entry story, 120 photographs over three days."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1230826028.usr1.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1230826039.usr1.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>Those are just two photo I selected from amonst the <a href="http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2008/12/the_year_2008_in_photographs_p.html" target="_blank">120 amazing photographs</a> that were selected to encompass some of what happened in 2008 around the world. Sadly, many of the photos encompass some of the violence that we see around the world - let's hope 2009 is a year where more peace, and less violence, will be the norm. Enjoy the photos!
