three sixty five. spring arrives.
I had a thought the other day, about project 365. Actually, a series of rapid, contradictory thoughts. It went like this:
“I wish I wasn’t doing project 365. If I wasn’t doing project 365, I could just take pictures whenever I wanted, and post as many as I wanted, however I wanted.” “Maybe I should’ve done a project 52 instead.” “But without the project 365, there’s less incentive to take a picture every day and carry my camera every day… and get the shots I’ve been getting lately. So maybe project 365 is a good thing.” “Mmmm. Okay then.”Yes, I had a complete conversation with myself. It happens. This one stemmed from the fact that this week I’ve just been having so much FUN with my pictures. Not just for project 365, but in general… I’m loving being able to take my camera everywhere thanks to my pretty camera bag, and I’m using my camera everywhere too. I’m hoping this excitement stays around for a while.
Anyway, on to the pictures…
day fifty seven – 28 and feeling great… My picture for my birthday. I didn’t spend a lot of time on this shot, and it shows. Two confessions: 1) I bought myself the cake, and the candles, especially for this picture and 2) the #8 candle is actually white. I realized once I got home how white does not photograph well, so I had to change the color of the candle, and I didn’t do a great job. Oh and confession 3… I didn’t eat the cake.
day fifty eight – in the middle of it all… My mom bought this gerbera daisy the other day and I couldn’t resist playing with it and my new macro lens. I love the colors and detail it captured.
day fifty nine – spring arrives with an explosion. Okay, I have to confess… this is my favorite picture that I’ve taken of this project. Hands freaking down. I absolutely LOVE the colors the macro lens picked up, love the detail, love the focus. Sorry, that sounds like bragging but… damn. And screw Explore, because in my eyes it totally deserved it. :p
day sixty – after the rain. My first picture of March… looks a lot like the last picture of February. But I was trying to capture some droplets (obviously didn’t work out) and fell in love with all the green.
day sixty one – “Today is gone. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one. Every day, from here to there, funny things are everywhere.” Quote by Dr. Seuss. And now my pictures are starting to look alike. I’m just happy to be shooting outside, to not being stuck in a pink theme, and to have a fun lens that picks up all sorts of colors.
day sixty two – the birds sing to welcome the sun to another day. I decided I had to try to “spice things up” and quit taking pictures that were looking all the same, and these birds caught my eye while I was waiting in the Starbucks drive thru. Oh and, gotta love that I’m not doing a pink theme anymore, but pink keeps showing up anyways.
day sixty three – bloom. And back to flowers. I found these blossoms on the tree at work, I swear they just appeared overnight, and I had to take pictures of them. I think the crop is odd, but I like the flare at the top left corner and didn’t want to lose it.
And there we go. 2 whole months, or 9 whole weeks, completed.
