    Thinking about a 365 project… started with a lawnmower.

    Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

    p>For the last month or so, I’ve contemplated doing a 365 day photo project (a picture a day for a year) to try and jump start my photographic passion.

It was very hard to get one clean capture since the ground isn’t perfectly flat so I decided to make a run on some concrete since it was smooth.

    We’ll see where this goes. Wish me luck.

    A few minutes of spare times results in a new picture. Has the daily photo challenge I set for myself turned into a weekly photo challenge?

    Time to shake off the photographic cobwebs

    Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

    I came home Sunday afternoon after I got back from church and eating lunch and I plopped myself right down on the couch.  Kickoff for the Jags game wasn’t until 4:05, so I had nothing better to do for two hours while waiting so I turned on the Cowboys/Bucs game and decided to relax and watch that.  Now, as far as [...]
