30 One - STATION

Not as creative as I initially intended. I actually had an outdoor station I wanted to share but late work hours resulting in darkness and snowy weather...put that idea to rest for just a bit. (bummed)

Thirty - ROUND

A round of Smiles. Heartwarming. Refreshing. Really. Doesn't it make you feel good inside?

January 29, 2011

20 Nine - VEGETABLE

Home grown vegetables, canned, enjoyed year round.

20 Eight - DAYLIGHT

Soon the days will be longer and the 'opening of daylight' will be awesome on my treks to the '8 to 5' of life. Can't wait. Can. Not. Wait.

20 Seven - CUDDLE

She's such a good sport. My photo model. Although she tries to ignore me...I think she loves the 'attention'. So....cuddle she did...with my Lady Bug Valentine. I got several shots from different angles but chose this one even though it isn't crisp and clear. It just seemed to give it that cuddly, dreamy feel that seemed to suit the 'mood'.

20 Six - GRAPHITE

The winter has been a bit colder than normal...too cold most days for me to get outside in the late hours of the day to capture an outside photo of some sort. These cold temps, too long of work days, and the 365 day project is challenging me to learn more of the indoor shooting in addition to finding new ways to 'create' a photo while also adding to my dwindling vocabulary.

20 Five - WIND

Flames waving in the wind from the stove fan.

The detail to this painted flower vase brightens my kitchen 'garden' wonderfully during the winter drabness.

The TV Signal...much depended on this Playoff Day.

20 - PAINTED

Hand painted, each one, with their own personality, coin and named.

9Teen - Consistency


The consistency of her devotion continues to awe me on a daily basis. Regardless of how little time I have to spend with her, how many hours I have to work, how few times I have energy to throw the kong for her in the brutal midwest winter, and mostly...regardless of the amount of times during the long winter that I ask her to pose for me.

8Teen - Natural

Natural golden, natural wavy...lit by the natural light of the fire.

It must be 5 o'clock somewhere.
A number I look forward to 5 days a week...sadly.

6teen - FLUID

A winter drink for basement bound flora and fauna.

January 15, 2011

5teen - SOUTH


A view to the SOUTH from my kitchen window into the little city park. I chose to focus on the sleeping bush outside the window versus the park bench in the distance in hopes of creating a bit of dreaminess.

3teen - RUSTY

A RUSTY garden art heart patiently awaiting for green grass to grow calling for freedom from the garage.

January 12, 2011

Twelve - PAIR

A PAIR of slippers. A gift of the holidays.

January 11, 2011

Eleven - UNDERNEATH

...the ceiling fan. Can you tell the fan is going?

January 10, 2011

Ten - NOTE

A message in a bottle? A NOTE on the mirror. Simple..serendipity...

January 8, 2011

Eight - CROSS

A Bible, a Cross, a bit of texture...all of which feed the mind in different ways

There's not a day lately that is not a MAINSTREAM of thought and processes involved with my passion.

January 4, 2011

Four - CRYSTAL

A crystal candy jar...still securing holiday spice gumdrops...forgotten about with New Year's resolutions.

Two - Thousand



Winter brings lazy day projects of THOUSAND piece puzzles to keep the mind from getting too lazy.

One - LIFE


What a perfect word to start the year with....life. This little bit of life surprised me with a bit of color after almost a year without blossoms. Maybe....it's a sign....
