Day 3: clouds

Amazing clouds. . .in front of an awesome sign!

Day 8: technology

As you can probably tell, I've been using my macro setting a lot while working on this project (and I've had a lot of fun with it!).  It took me a while to get this shot because my point-and-shoot was not focusing where I wanted it to.  I finally got the right angle so that I was happy with the place of focus.  My laptop is very literally my life and I am quite lost without it (and my internet connection)!  I wonder how many keystrokes I've logged on this keyboard since I got it at the beginning of 2009. . .

Day 10: something i made

I spend 3 hours stitching baby blankets for my family
& friends when they welcome a baby in their lives.

Day 14: flower(s)

Day 27: after dark

 

Only a few more nights left crossing Mountain & Main at around 11:45 p.m. for work.  Next week I'll be going to work in the light at a much earlier hour!

Day 23: sunset

Taken through the windshield of my car. . .while driving. . .don't try this at home!

Day 11: something fun

something fun. . .a giant cup of coffee with a friend

Day 20: what i read

Yikes, where do I even start with a theme like "what i read"? - I mean, I can't even fit all the books I've read in the last year in one picture that I'd be happy with. So I picked the one book that is the most important to me, the Bible. Some days it's hard to read - because of how busy I am or because of the content of the text. Other days I don't want to stop - because God speaks through it and it touches something deep within me. I photographed one of my favorite chapters, Isaiah 58.

Stay hungry. Stay foolish.

Day 22: trees

I LOVE trees!  And at this time of the year, seeing them turn color from greens to reds and yellows and oranges is simply amazing.  It stirs something within me that I cannot describe in words.  The fall is upon us, even though the temperatures don't feel that way - to reach 30 in the summer is one thing, but at the beginning of October is unheard of!  Be sure to get out and enjoy the changing leaves and the beautiful weather!

Day 25: sunflare

 

  

Hope that you were able to get outside today

and enjoy the beautiful weather and vote!

Day 21: pretty pattern

 

pretty pattern. . .enough said

Day 9: faceless self portrait

Since moving in August, my bike and I have trekked many miles together.  I have biked to work and to the pool, but there are also great biking trails in town that I've taken advantage of.  I've been lucky in biking to work - it's only rained a few times and when it did, it was just a light rain.  I guess I'll see what happens when the snow flies (maybe that won't happen this year?!?).  Here I had to stop at an intersection and wait for a few cars when I noticed the reflection in the water and my shadow, so this is my faceless self portrait of one of the new activities in my life.

Day 5: someone i love

My dog Sydney is definitely someone I love!  She greets me with unbounding love and admiration every time I see her!  Getting a picture of her is always a challenge since she doesn't sit still for very long (unless you're giving her a belly rub and then it's difficult to take a picture!).
