Project 366 – 2012

One of my goals for 2012 (no resolutions here!) is to improve my photography and use manual rather than full auto! In 2009 I took a photo a day for the month of February, remember this post.

have embarked on a photo a day project for 2012, thats 366 photos – it’s a leap year this year!  Today is Day 8 – I have survived my first week of the project.

I signed up for Nicole Samuel’s Photo-a -Day class through Studio Calico. I also discovered Shuttercal – a calendar based daily photography based project community. Here’s the link to my Calendar.

So here is Day 1 to 7 of 366.

Sunlight & Shadow

Let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other’s cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf. Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music. Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. And stand together, yet not too near together: For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.”

The Light of Winter – Photo Prompts

I nearly missed out on this one – LK Ludwig is hosting a photo prompt a day for the remaining days of December – she started on the 14th of December and will continue until the 1st of January.

Each day she is posting a prompt around the theme  – The Light of Winter – it isn’t winter here, we are in the midst of summer, but I’m sure it will all work out.

This photo is the first of our holiday photos – our Christmas tree all deck out lit only by the fairy lights.
