Project 365: Day 5

Day 5: My mom bought some snowshoes last year and we got so little snow that she wasn't able to try them out. So today was the day. We went over to the local golf course, her to practice snowshoeing, me to take some pictures. I bundled my camera up in my scarf to keep it warm and dry when I wasn't taking pictures. It seemed to work out well. :)

Project 365: Day 4

Day 4: Tonight was Awana. We were missing quite a few girls this evening and so since there weren't many girls with sections to listen to, one of the helpers (who happens to be a wonderful friend of mine) hung out with me out at the secretary table (I am one of the secretaries). We put her to work putting together a collage of pictures from our Western Night a few weeks ago. It turned out really great...and I thought a picture of her putting the collage together would be perfect. :)

Project 365: Day 3

Day 3: Tonight I went to the college-age Bible Study that I attend at a local church. Afterwards, a few of us were sitting by the fireplace in the church lobby, talking and eating, when I remembered that I still needed to take a picture today! I asked those who were still there to let me take a picture of their feet. That didn't work quite how I wanted it to (too many feet!) so we went with hands instead. :)

Project 365: Day 2

Day 2: Because my mom being out of town until the middle of last week, we postponed Christmas. Tonight was the night and what fun it was discovering what was in all those packages! Here's a snapshot of what I got for Christmas this year (minus the UV filter for my camera lens which was already on the lens when I took this picture). :)

Project 365: Day 1

Day 1: My mom and I went to Cabela's today when we were out and about. I am not a big sporting goods store kind of person, but I do think Cabela's is kind of fun. Right in the middle of the store, visible when you walk in, is a giant mountain with all sorts of wild animals on display. These deer were so cute I just had to snap their picture!

Project 365

About a week ago a friend told me about something called Project 365. The challenge is to take a picture every day for one year. I thought it sounded interesting, so I thought about it for the past week, and looked at blogs of others who have done the challenge, and decided that I am going to participate this year. From what I read online, it sounds like this is a good way to improve my photography skills and I am hoping to also use this challenge to improve some of my editing skills, too. I can't promise to edit every single picture I take, but this could be a great way to learn more of what Photoshop has to offer, too. :)

So...here's to a year of pictures! If you, too, are taking part in Project 365, feel free to link to your blog, or wherever you are hosting pictures, using the linky tool below, so that others can see your photos, too!

Happy New Year!
