Much like last year, the days, weeks and months I spent shooting once again revolved heavily around the world of sports. From local venues – and spanning across the country to California and Texas – and Florida more than six times – it has been an amazing journey.

To say the least, 2014 was subject for an abundance of brutal pictures. The rise of the auto-documentary impulse, the prevalence of tools that make anyone anywhere around the world an amateur photographer, has nearly overwhelmed our visual ecosystem (our social networks) with unverified images of blood and gore.
