Project 365: Afterthoughts on a very good year

27 December 2011 Project 365

Yay, I did it! Another 365 project under my belt. Because I finished on Christmas Eve, there wasn’t a lot of time to post a long-winded look back at the year in pictures, but you must have known it was coming! Here’s all 365 of them, in the order they were posted: (Lots of greens [...]

Project 365: It’s a wrap!

25 December 2011 Project 365

I did it! We’ve reached the end, 367 days later, of my second 365 project. Maybe when you do more than one you get extra days snuck in? I never did figure out where I dropped a couple of days, but regardless, we’re here at #365 again. Here’s the last week in photographs. Looking back [...]

Project 365: The penultimate post!

17 December 2011 Project 365

Only one week left in this iteration of the 365 project! Of course, the big question now is what comes next. I’m still not sure of the answer to that one myself – stand by and I’ll let you know when I know! I had a great time with fakery and rule-breaking this week! The [...]

Project 365: It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

10 December 2011 Project 365

There may not be much snow on the ground, but it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the 365 project! We had such a busy day on Saturday that a single photo just wasn’t enough to cover it. First we went to Hillcrest Tree Farm to choose and cut down a Christmas tree. [...]

Project 365: In which she once AGAIN miscounts to 365

4 December 2011 Project 365

There’s no cohesive theme to the 365 project this week. In fact, I’ve been bending the rules near to breaking — only 20 days left! Speaking of days left, remember last time I did this, and ended up with 366 pictures in my 365 project cuz I couldn’t count to 365? So I know I [...]

Project 365: Heading into the home stretch!

26 November 2011 Project 365

I can’t believe I’ve got more than 90 per cent of my second 365 project in the can. Did this year just fly by or what? This week’s pictures are all over the map. Actually, that’s not quite true — they were all taken within or around Manotick. But I couldn’t really come up with [...]

Project 365: Natural beauties

20 November 2011 Project 365

It seems I’m doing most of my picture-taking at sunrise and sunset these days. Not really surprising, since they bookend the work day, and with continuing mild temperatures, dusk and dawn are pleasant times to be out hunting for interesting shots. These spiky, weedy things, for example. I have no idea what they are, but [...]

Project 365: Pumpkins and pinecones and a gentle goodnight to autumn

12 November 2011 Project 365

There was a stat quoted in the Ottawa paper the other day, to the effect that in the 75 years they’ve been keeping records there has never been a year that no measurable snow fell before Remembrance Day. Hasn’t it been just the most lovely, pleasant autumn? The photo ops have been throwing themselves at [...]

Project 365: Portraits and pretties and rampaging pumpkins

5 November 2011 Project 365

The days are getting shorter and the light is low in the sky, but it’s been such a beautiful, mild autumn that almost all my pictures were taken outdoors this week. On the weekend, I had the great pleasure of meeting the Pietersma family. Have you ever seen the Victorian tinsel and gorgeous tin stars [...]
