Photo-a-Day Challenge


My camera has a permanent place on my kitchen counter.  Unfortunately, though it's handy, it often remains there all day long while life goes on around it. During the month of May, I challenged myself to take at least one photo of something every day.  I didn't have a perfect record, but my self-imposed challenge inspired me to pick up the camera more than I would have otherwise.  Do you find that sometimes you are so busy living the memories that you forget to take time to capture them?

This month, I am taking my sister Kati's Photo-a-Day Challenge and posting my results about once a week.

    I am notorious for taking my camera places and not taking any photos! I love your idea of a self imposed challenge to take a photo every day.

      It was a good challenge. Made me think outside the box, too, of things worth photographing.

      It did turn out really well. The lighting was so bright, but of course, my subjects made it hard to get a bad photo. :-)

    I have 2 fitness goals. One is to do a REAL pushup. The other is to win that rubber chicken lanyard in the Chickens for Haiti 5K! :) Nice pics, Kristin. I love how you posted them.

      Love your goals, Joanne! I've won the chicken lanyard, but I've never, ever in my life been able to do a real pushup!

    I agree with the others on the sunglasses photo! And you have designed and presented them all so nicely!

    I like your presentation with the colour block and title for each day - very unique! When I read sunglasses, the photo of our grandson and friends at his graduation last year came to mind - your group photo is also sweet.
