365 - Day 12 - 1/16/08

Nothing beats getting cozy at your moms after a hard day. Mom has a day bed in the basement full of warm blankets and lots of pillows, it is a place I have spent much time over the last 10 months just vegging and forgetting about life. Today was no different. It's nice to have a place like this to go and feel comfortable.

This is one of my faves so far. I joined a photo group on Flickr, where they pick a different them or topic everyday, today was "brushing teeth", so here is my take on that. Lots of fun!

365 - Day 5 - 1/8/08

Today was a pretty stressful day...now I am decompressing in front of my laptop, or "lightbox" as Mom would call it. The quality of the photo is not that great because I took it with the built-in camera on my Mac. I do kinda like this one though because of its unclear quality.

Photo Goal

This year instead of making New Years Resolutions that I would not follow through with, I have decided that I would like to make a list of Things to Do in 2008. On this list one of my goals, is related to my photography. After taking the photo class this fall and learning a lot, I have realized upon picking my camera up after a brief hiatus from taking pictures, I had lost a lot of what I had learned and do not want this to continue.

So after doing a little bit of research and finding a little inspiration, I have decided that my photo goal for the year will be to take a photo every single day this year. Being a scrapbooker, this will be helpful in that arena also (where I also have some major goals for the year). So in the interest of trying to get this jumpstarted, I am going to go back and post a few pics I have taken this month already with the official count starting today.

I will post my photos here, at least once a week if not more often, and will also post them in my Picasa Photo Gallery
and my Flickr Gallery

So I hope that you will check out some of photos from the year and maybe be inspired to set a similar goal for yourself. Happy 2008!
