Sean O’KaneĮarlier this year, I approached James Bareham with a thought: I wanted to showcase our books coverage in a different way. Add in the cramped confines and scenic backdrop of the Manhattan skyline, and you wind up with an event I couldn’t stop myself from overshooting. But that makes it all the more interesting (and challenging) to shoot.

The field might not be full of Earnhardts or Hamiltons, and the races are far from the spectacle of something like the Daytona 500.

That’s something major motorsports like Formula One and Ind圜ar were never able to make happen over the last few decades, and yet here was the upstart EV racing series putting on a double-header race weekend on the streets of Brooklyn in just its third year. The second, though, is that the series pulled off a race in New York City. One is how amazing it is that the all-electric racing series, launched in 2014, is even still around starting a racing series is hard, starting one with new technologies that not everyone is on board with is a totally different kind of challenge. There are two truly unbelievable things about Formula E’s first race in New York City. The photographs below are arranged chronologically by the date they were first published. But after all, there’s only so many photos of smartphones, laptops, headphones and iPhone cases you can reasonably fit in to one single post, especially when you factor in the need to leave room for a photo of cuddly pillow with a wagging tail. As we have so many photographs to choose from, making a final selection has been incredibly hard and no doubt we have missed out many that should have been included. So once again it is time to select our favorite photos from this past year, including many from a growing number of our regular freelancers. This past year also saw a dramatic increase in the amount of original content we created for our social media channels (particularly Instagram Stories) and a far greater use of movement in the imagery, particularly the use of stop motion animation. While the range of subjects and the shear volume of gadgets we photographed increased exponentially, we also created a number of new photographic formats during 2017: We photographed cars as gadgets for ScreenDrive arranged items neatly for What’s in Your Bag shot artists and their art for Technographica and created isometric patterns with gadgets for Guidebook and our Back-to-School and Holiday Gift Guides. More of our writers and reporters are now regularly shooting their own photos to accompany their stories, and I hope even more will pick up their cameras and phones in 2018. When it comes to the photography on The Verge, 2017 was the year of “more.” Not only have we taken and published more original photographs than ever before, more people at The Verge have been taking them. 2017 has been very interesting and emotional.

As 2017 finally draws to a close, we can all look back on a year that in many ways seems to have lasted 10.
