    Love it! Playing with my christmas tree last year is what inspired my 365... I may not have finished it, but at least it got me taking photos again :)

    Very cool what you did with the lights! Big spots and swirls. I love Christmas tree lights. Too bad they don't last very long.

    Those first pictures are so fun! I will have to try that, since my tree will still be up when I get home from vacation in January!

    LOVE those- how did you do those first ones?? Long exposure I am assuming :)
  15. Becca says

    December 28, 2011 at 9:25 am

    I think everyone was rockin the bokeh this year. I had SO much fun doing the same. I have a few of the "scribble" pix too. So much fun to slow the shutter down and make designs with the camera. I think next up for me is light painting.
  16. Ashley Sisk says

    December 28, 2011 at 9:20 am

    I haven't had nearly as much fun with my tree this year - this inspires me.

It was an adventure to get there but we finally di It was an adventure to get there but we finally did. The place we normally park was closed for repaving so we went on the hunt for a new place. It was a nice secluded spot that we might just make our new spot. The kids had a blast, I am glad it stays shallow here plus we didn’t have to worry about waves.

Project 365 photo catch up. Can’t believe it is Project 365 photo catch up. Can’t believe it is almost the end of May! Had my hair trimmed yesterday, and my eyebrows tinted. The eyebrow dye last for about 4-6 weeks. It gradually lightens up over time. I included the photo of Annie after she did her “makeup”. This project 365 isn’t looking like I thought it would. I was hoping to use my DSLR more but end up just using my phone and using random photos I take during the day. Nothing specific or set up pretty, but it works. I’m still capturing memories.

Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point and the water was too cold for me to get in but just kept dipping my feet in the water to cool down. Unfortunately I got a terrible headache in the afternoon so had to cut the trip a little short. Next time I need to remember to bring medicine. Not sure what’s been going on lately but the last few days I have gotten headaches in the afternoon.
