Register staff photographer Brian Powers remembers his best images of 2018
Here at the Register, we are always looking toward the next story, the next event or even just the next day, but it’s rare that we have a chance to look back until now, the end of the year.
I filed more than 3,000 photos from across the state in 2018. Sure, there are the annual events we all know and love like the state tournaments, RAGBRAI and the Iowa State Fair, but it’s the smaller stories — the stories of Iowans' daily life — that make each year different and make this profession so interesting.
I continue to be in awe of people’s strength when faced with disaster and their willingness to have their story heard.
So thank you. Thank you for being willing to open up and share your stories with us and in turn, with other Iowans across the state.
