Watching Diligently

Day 68: Project 365

I was wandering around the house aimlessly while searching for something to photograph that would represent my day when I spied one of my cats sitting up in the open window. It was an incredibly nice day so the windows were up so we could enjoy the weather and our cats love it when the windows are open. So I snapped a few photos.

After I saw this one, something told me it needed to be black and white so that's what I did. I used the black and white filter and I'm very pleased with the way it turned out.

Day 67; Project 365

This day was so hectic. I was running around cleaning the house like a crazy person, putting final touches up in the nursery and getting ready for my in-laws visit that afternoon. I literally only had about 5 minutes of down time.

So when I glanced out of the window and saw the buds on the trees I grabbed my camera and ran out side for a few quick shots. I'm actually amazed at how good this one turned out.

It's hard to believe that the exact same time this photo was taken, a week earlier a winter storm was dumping 4-6 inches of snow on a good part of North Georgia.

Proper Lady

Day 66; Project 365

Sorry. I had this uploaded yesterday and thought I'd posted it. Appears I only saved a draft and never actually hit post. So I'm remedying that now and hitting post.

This photo is a little different. It's not perfect and that's why I like it. I haven't done anything to this shot, other than snap the shot and upload it. However, I really like it. The image isn't in frame, the flash totally blows out the background and yet... I don't know. This photo just grabs me.

This is one of my dolls. I've had her for many many years. Now her new home is in the nursery where she is sitting and waiting for her new owner to arrive.

Across The Lake

Day 65; Project 365

On Day 65 I was driving home from work and traffic was backed up so far that I was literally at a stand still over Buford Dam. As I sat there looking around, I decided to whip out my camera and take a few photos. This one turned out pretty good.

I give you the still very drought stricken Lake Sidney Lanier. You can see in this photo how low the water still remains, despite the rain fall we've been getting, the lake needs a lot more. Heck, the entire area needs a lot more.

Looking Up

Day 64; Project 365

You may be thinking I'm cheating here. That maybe I took this picture on the same day as day 63. Well, I did not. This is actually the following day and the sky was still amazing. What struck me most on my drive in this day was the clouds more so than the actual skyline as in my previous day's shot. They were soft and fluffy and just gorgeous. I had to take another photo.

Rise and Shine

Day 63; Project 365

This is another shot from my work parking lot. I was struck by the color's of the sunrise and so I snapped a few photos. I typically get to work early and seeing the sunrise is definitely one of the perks of my schedule.

Waiting

Day 62; Project 365

Spent some time in the nursery (What else is new, right?!) and took a few shots of the progress being made there and this one came out pretty good. I received this pink puppy from a friend, and I think the contrast between it and the brown is really cool.

I know I've been spending a lot of time in the nursery and will have more photos to post, the good news is we're almost there!
