-Project 365 ....Day one?

Chantel is participating in this cool thing called Project 365.  The idea is to take one picture every day and post it.  At the end of the year you will have a complete chronicle of your year....and hopefully it will inspire you to get into photography in a new way and capture those moments that you might have otherwise missed.  I'm not sure if I can commit to a picture a day....but I am thinking about it.  Due to my over-perfectionism I realized that if I was going to even think about doing this, I had better take a picture today.....or it would bother me that I didn't start on the 1st of January.  Yes, I have issues.   I might end up setting up a separate blog page for this project (like Chantel has, here!)  We will see how it goes.

Here is Day One of my 365 Days of Photos....maybe!


This picture was fun to take.  I got to play around with the macro setting on my new camera.  I saw lots of leaves with perfect raindrops on them, but this one spoke to me.  Maybe it is all of the nostalgia from starting a new year, but I felt like this leaf, with it's beautiful, yet imperfect raindrops kind of represents 2009 for me.  Definitely an imperfect year....but still full of beauty and growth and even lessons learned.

  1. I love the picture! I'd love to get a picture like that. Too bad it's all snow outside right now. I'm not brave enough to wander around in the snow. I'm glad that you are taking part! I can't wait to see other pictures!

  2. Great photo, and what a fun idea!

    I don't know if I can commit to one picture a day either. Maybe one a week? I'll give this some thought.

    Thanks for the inspiration!

  6. Beautiful picture! I've also taken on the 365 challenge but I'm not quite sure how I'm going to post it - right now I have it on DailyBooth and Facebook :)

  8. Pretty neat idea. I've got a lot of picture posts already. That is a neat way to chronicle the year though.
