He also has become quite a photographer with stunning images from his travels and shows all over the country.
Here’s our Top Ten Random Twitpics from 2011. VOTE for your favorite!
Hurricane Lee’s making landfall the same weekend as Taylor’s Labor Day Weekend beach concert at the historic Florabama Roadhouse on the Gulf Coast brought these striking images:
NUMBER TWO: “Till the skies open up and the trumpet sounds.” 9/5/11
“Lee is angry…had a great time @flora_bama Great Show!” 9/5/11
The stoic stage setups have become a favorite fan photo as they wait for the gig! It always meant good times were coming. Taylor got into the spirit with his own stage setup photo and with his own clever title:
“Gig gear” Flamingo Room 9/16/11
Travel was a given, and Taylor shared some of those “moments in time” with his followers on Twitter:
“They say the neon lights are bright” 3/13/11
Sunsets were a popular capture, perhaps because it was a relaxing time for the busy artist who spends most of every year on the road and on the concert stage.
Simply tweeted with this stunner: “Yahtze” 7/9/11
From Telluride: “Gondola” 8/5/11
It was sheer beauty as Taylor shared these:
"Fire and Ice:" Vacation in the Rockies
TIED FOR NUMBER TWO: “One of my favorite seats on the planet #bien” 10/5/11
Finally, pure randomness shared beauty of a different kind:
Attention to the smallest and unusual: "Life goes on. (turtle nest)" 7/25/11
WINNER-NUMBER ONE! A quiet moment on Lake Mission Viejo: August, 2011

I'd like to vote for all of them.
I always liked 'turtles nest' cause he tweeted it shortly after Carsons death.
Thanks, Anonymous, for voting. It was difficult to choose ten and harder to vote for one. I thought the turtle's nest was an amazing picture too, and I knew I had to include it. The timing makes it more meaningful.
San
I vote for 2 photos -- the nightscape where he says "this is my favorite seats on the planet" and "fire and ice".
Thanks for the "album". All good shots.
