My favourite pictures of 2025

Every day, FLORIDA TODAY’s award-winning group of visible journalists wakes as much as a calendar filled with a wide-ranging schedule of locations to go and occasions to seize.

On the day of the Blood Worm Moon in March, for instance, it was discovering the correct, most colourful spot to take pictures of the lunar eclipse.

On Sept. 11, it was honoring a solemn ceremony at Cape Canaveral National Cemetery, the place the headstones of fallen troopers have been being cleaned and a younger woman’s candy and easy innocence as she helped the hassle was captured in a private, poignant image.

And these have been simply two of numerous pictures taken by one member of FLORIDA TODAY’s intrepid photograph group in a yr by which record-breaking launches alone saved the photographers hopping.

Who’s going the place, to shoot what? How are the assignments divvied up?

That’s the place FLORIDA TODAY Senior Photographer Malcolm Denemark steps in. Day after day, yr after yr, he helps map out the logistics of masking a 72-mile-long county. Then, he turns his personal eager eye to the sky and past for pictures starting from the emotional to the elegant to these eliciting a “Wow! How did you get that?

These are Denemark’s favourite pictures of 2025. See the remainder of his No. 1 decisions on Page 3A, and don’t miss the galleries of all of the photographers’ work at floridatoday.com.
