Sunshine



It's been chilly and cloudy for days. And for days it's been a struggle to maintain any acceptable amount of energy. Today made up for them all! Not only was the sun shining, but the temperature was perfect!

As I walked through the living room I noticed the sun shining through the Japanese Maple in the front yard. (We love that tree. There's actually a slightly humorous story behind it.) And the leaves glowed, making it look so healthy and vibrant. It will be a happy tree. ;)

So today's picture is about sunshine. The sunshine that coursed through my veins today and created such a wonderful state of mind.

I love days like this.

365 Day Challenge


I'm writing this from my phone so it won't be as long, or as detailed as my blogs tend to be.

I was checking out my Facebook newsfeed this evening and came across a question to my fellow photographers in the community... Have you ever attempted or completed a 365 day challenge? Why, no. I have not!

And so my wheels start to turn again...

Now, knowing myself as well as I do, :), something tells me that I won't complete the entire 365 posts, but I'm intrigued enough to try it out. I'd like to approach it, however, from a non-professional perspective, and make it more personal. After all, this IS my personal blog!

And so it will be this...

One picture a day of anything, iPhone and iPod pictures only. Creativity is welcomed, of course, so apps are allowed and encouraged.

This will begin a (hopefully) daily account of the happenings and perspectives in and of my life.

And there it is! Short and sweet!

I hope it lasts!! (Take your bets! Haha!)

* Today's picture is the closest thing to me that describes me: A view of my bedside table. Here you will find a large stack of travel guides, a book of word find puzzles, a concrete brochure, and a book that I've barely started.
