:: A journey, in pictures, one day at a time, through the last year of my thirties ::
Welcome to my Project 365! Please join me as I document, through photos, each day of this year, from January 22, 2010, my 39th birthday, culminating on January 22, 2011. Yes, the day I turn 40! This blog is my photojournal of my journey through the 39th year of my life ... the last year of my thirties. Along the way I hope to continue to grow my love of photography and immerse myself even further in to this beloved hobby. I intend to learn all I can, both about my cameras and equipment, and about taking great pictures. Most of all, I intend to enjoy the process! I hope you will follow along, and please comment! Your feedback will help me to learn and grow!

We spent the holiday weekend with dogs and friends in Lincoln, NH in the White Mountains, pretty much one of our most favorite places to be! The first picture is before we left the house, all packed and ready to go! The second picture is Mt. Washington, the highest peak in the Northeast. It is the one in the middle with the clouds and fog hanging over it...because it had just snowed the day before at the summit! Yup, snow at 6000+ feet...and 95* and humid on the ground...
This morning, Kevin and I enjoyed a Valentine's Day breakfast at our favorite little place. There was this adorable acapella quartet entertaining the patrons. These sweet grandpas had the nicest voices! They sung lots of old time tunes. What a fun morning!

:: a note ::
The images I am posting on this blog were all taken by me. I am an amateur in the strictest sense of the word. This blog is as much about learning and growing in this craft as it is about documenting this year from 39 to 40. All of the images I post are straight out of my camera. I do not own Photoshop software nor do I know how to use it. This is photography in its purest form, untouched and not manipulated at all. As such these images will never be perfect. Perfection is not what I strive for. Doing my own personal best with what I have to work with and hopefully some God-given talent is my version of perfect, and that is good enough for me!
I know it seems like I reach for my point & shoot camera most often. To be honest, during the week after working all day I am not up to fiddling around with settings and such. I prefer to do that when I have good chunks of time to devote to my dSLR. So it will be the weekends where I will be using the "good" camera and doing the most experimenting. The four days of the week I work it is just all about documenting each day in photos...no matter what I use to capture them!
