I have posted 212 lunchtime photos this year, and that’s tiring work. So how about showing your appreciation for all this lunchtime beauty by making a contribution to Mother Jones? It’s really easy: just click here.

Here are my ten favorite photos of 2020, in no particular order.

1. Collette rose

2. Disney Hall

3. Horseshoe Bend

4. Surfer at Huntington Beach

5. Monument Valley

6. Segerstrom Hall at 3 am

7. Great Blue Turaco

8. Flamingo

9. Starry sky on I40 east of Kingman, Arizona

10. Slot Canyon X

11. Bonus: Neowise comet

This is not a favorite photo per se, but it is a photo of a comet, the first I’ve ever seen.

“Lying.” “Disgusting.” “Scum.” “Slime.” “Corrupt.” “Enemy of the people.” Donald Trump has always made clear what he thinks of journalists. And it’s plain now that his administration intends to do everything it can to stop journalists from reporting things they don’t like—which is most things that are true.

No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
