Honestly, when I grabbed my camera and snapped a shot on January 1, beginning my Discovery Project, I thought it would be a neat idea to take a picture every day.  To document my  life for year.  I had no idea what I was getting myself into.

I had no idea how much I would enjoy this.  How my family would rally around and support me, reminding me, “Did you take a picture today?”  How calm and confident I would feel behind the camera.  How much my style would adapt and change until it felt like “my own”.  How I would push myself by going different places and doing different things.  How much I would enjoy stopping and savoring little moments of my life.  How much I would stretch my creativity….. I had no idea.

It’s hard for me to explain how much I am committed to this project.  I am so proud to look back and see the fruits of my labor.  And to be over the half way mark, priceless!  What most strikes me as I look back through my images is the change of seasons.  January so very different from June!
