discovery project – three month review

Three months down, nine more to go! Above are the daily images that I took during the month of March for the Discovery Project.  Honestly, this month was extremely hard – squeezing in a picture a day.  Mostly becasue I’ve had so much going on in my life! When I started this project, I knew...

nature and stuff

I have been so blessed that my family supports my photography habit.  Last week, my husband suggested that we take a day trip to the mountains – “You know, so that you can take pictures of nature and stuff.” God, I love this man! So yesterday, we did just that.  Just me and him.  And...

love thursday – a corner of love

I captured this image from a corner of my desk – the place where I update this blog, pay our bills, and take care of general day-to-day business.  It’s actually a paperweight, but I find that when I am thinking, or reflecting, I pick this heart up and hold it close. This could easily be...

what’s old is new again – free ttv texture

Have I mentioned how much I love my argus? Man, I really love this camera. I’ve used it for quite a few images.  Any time I need inspiration, I grab the argus and head outside.  An entirely new world appears!  There is minimal post-processing involved – mostly cropping, and I love the vintage inspired look...

noticing blue

Everyday, I’m on a quest to find something interesting for the discovery project.  While post-processing my images yesterday, I was struck by how most of my findings had something in common – an underlying blue. I try to make my home a calm place, one where my little family can get away from the world...

anything can be

Listen to the mustn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the  shouldn’ts, the impossibles,  the won’ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me: Anything can happen, child. Anything can be. ~Shel Silverstein *************** This post is dedicated to Relyn, who inspired me to post this image from her lovely comment on...

With the days getting longer and a bit warmer, we are spending more time outside.  So happy to be clicking away outdoors instead of inside!

artistic

In a recent conversation with my mother, we guessed what my daughter would be when she grows up – our hopes and dreams for her future. “What did you think I would be when I grew up?” I asked her. Pause. “You were very artistic.  You drew and painted very well.” Pause. Not the answer...

in a knot

So many things going on in my life – so little time! I have so plans, just not enough time in the day to accomplish everything I would like.  Hopefully, things will calm down a bit for me in the near future. Juggling so much these days, how about you?  How do you achieve balance...

It is subtle, very subtle, but all around me, I am witnessing the birth of new life.  A new season is on it’s way, and I can’t wait! Looking forward to nice, relaxing Sunday with my family.
