Hi, there. I'm brushing the dust off this blog to use it as a tool in my latest get-through-January campaign. I need creative outlets and have missed taking pictures, so decided to do a daily photo project again. Independently, I set a goal to do something outside every day. While I didn't intend it, these two goals have a symbiotic relationship. I'm more likely to get a picture if I go outside (because my typical days alone at home are BORING, move along, nothing to see here), and I'm more likely to go for a walk if I have a purpose. My leisurely walks aren't raising my heart rate, but they are raising my spirits.
I set some parameters to challenge myself: NO EDITING! Not even cropping. These are straight out of the camera, and taken with manual settings. A couple in this first batch (I'll post once a week) are from my phone. It's not great quality, but I had it on me when I didn't have my camera, and felt those images were worthy to document.

| Jan. 3. Three sets of concentrating eyes: Elise, her teacher and Beethoven. Elise was pulling Bach from memory. Phone. |

| Jan. 4. It was fun to watch the horses a bit and have them eventually come toward me. I imagined capturing their cold-enhanced, cloudy breathing when I set out on my walk, but that didn't materialize. |

| Jan. 5. Samuel's science fair project of measuring solubility. |

| Jan. 6. Snow break after Samuel's first deacon duty of clearing driveways. The snow was so heavy! Phone. |

Hey! I just happened to be looking at my blog. Lucky me because I caught your photography! Yay!
By the way, I think Elise is an incredible violinist. She knows how to make it sing. I love listening to her play!
