Testing Embed of Google+ Posts in a Blog Post

Although I have a new WordPress blog set up so that it should have my Google+ posts available for people who might happen to come upon my content through my blog, the tool that was supposed to copy and maintain my G+ posts on my blog seems to have missed some of my most popular posts.  Fortunately there's now the ability to take at least those most popular ones and add the content into a blog post.

So let's try this out...



It works! Best of all, I think G+ users can interact with the G+ post directly on the blog... +1 it, comment, share. How cool is that?  I've tested it with WordPress as well: http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/2013/12/29/embed-google-posts-in-your-blog/

Best Photos of 2013

This image was developed (post-processed) in 2013, but exposed in 2012, so which year gets credit?
Around this time of year many photographers assemble their "Best of the Year" images. It's hard to pick favorites among so many amazing moments I experience in a year, let alone apply the added value judgement of "best".

So here are a few candidates. The 10 best? You decide!
