2008: The Year in Photos

With everything from political movements to film and music festivals to celebrations at the historic Sonoma Plaza to important local news, 2008 was another unforgettable year in Sonoma Valley.
The past year has seen joyous celebrations, heartfelt demonstrations and sorrowful times of reflection that resonated with each of us.
We here at the Sonoma Valley Sun have captured many of the moments that made 2008 memorable, and thanks to our photo editor Ryan Lely and our newsroom staff, we have selected a number of photos that represent an intriguing year in our city’s history; moments that might have captured our attention for perhaps only a split second at the time, but will remain with us for some time to come.
As we all reflect on what 2008 meant to us, take a moment to look at photos that defined Sonoma this past year.
