And Yet More

Day 75; Project 365

I was wondering around the house wondering what I could take a photo of on this day when, just for fun, I snapped a photo of my iMac desk top. I thought, well if nothing else it'd be kind of fun to see if the photo I took a few days ago would look just as cool as a photo of itself. What I didn't realize at the time but did soon after is the reflections caught in the monitor. If you look closely you can see the chair, the lamp, the window. I thought it was kind of cool so it became my daily photo.

Reflecting

Day 74; Project 365

This photo was taken after a good rain. I grabbed up the camera and walked outside and snapped a few shots hoping to get some rain drops. Instead I got this cool reflection of the trees in our front yard off my truck.

Neck and Neck


Day 73; Project 365

On this day, dh and I just wanted to get out of the house. We've been so busy getting ready for our new additions arrival that we haven't been anywhere. Our original plan was to hit a local park. However, it was pouring down rain. So instead we went out to lunch, delicious mexican (first mexican I've had in over 8 monthes. I know! But it's true!) and then we drove out to where the new baseball stadium is under construction.

So day 73's image is a far away shot of the new minor league baseball field under construction close to my house. It's for the minor league baseball team the Gwinnett Braves who will kick off their inaugural season about the same as my due date. We're in a heated race to see who reaches completion first.

The shot could be better, but it was raining that day and this was as close as we could get.

Ever Elusive

Day 72; Project 365

Ever since starting this Project 365 I've attempted to photograph still life. Still life in the form of fruit. You always see the beautiful fruit bowls right? Well, I've always thought my attempts at capturing the beauty, the colors, the magic have failed miserably. This photo is no exception.

Seriously, I think it could be better. But it made today's shot because it was the best photo of the day. Not that it's so terrible, but it could be better. I just think I'll keep trying my hand at this particular shot.

Too Cute


Day 71: Project 365

I'd love to say I knitted this baby hat. But I didn't. It was a gift from a friend along with a matching sweater. It was just so cute I had to take a few photos of it. The photo doesn't do it justice.

As always, if you want to see a clearer, bigger image of the photo just click the photo. It'll take you to my Flickr page where my Project 365 photos are calling home.

The Tall and Short of It

Day 70: Project 365

Another meh photo but the best of the day. We picked up these clay jars on St. George Island while on a family vacation. Since our remodeling efforts, these guys have a new home. They've moved upstairs.

Even though this is a meh photo, there is one thing I like about it. The depth perception is off. The red and blue jar is much shorter and fatter than the solid blue jar. But the image is horribly out of focus. I did my best to fix it but just couldn't manage.

Hmmm....

Day 69: Project 365

We all have good days and bad days right? Well last week I had several bad ones all in a row. I couldn't take a good picture for nothing. Sorry, but this is the best shot I could manage on day 69.

It's the smellies from my potpourri dish.
