Still Working On It: Photography School Scavenger Hunt.

Yes, it is taking me quite some time, but I am still working on my Photography School Scavenger Hunt (anyone else?). I could so totally be done by now if I weren't so picky about my photo submissions in this non-competitive photography exercise. (I mean, I still haven't submitted to the "Something Blue" category --- which seems like a no brainer!).

And now, since our Orlando vacation, I have hundreds of photos to sift through, touch-up and categorize, etc. So, hopefully there will be more submissions to come soon ... to both the PS Scavenger Hunt and my Flickr collection of Disney Pics.

One day at a time :)

Love,

Jodi

Daddy's New Toy.

Mama got Daddy a Nikon D60 for Christmas ... partly because he expressed interest in learning photography ... and partly because I want a photography buddy. Either way, he is totally enjoying it. I also gave him David Busch's D60 Guide ... and he has been reading it veraciously. I have a feeling that my photography buddy is soon going to surpass my amateur level of expertise ... and we may end up getting a little competitive (as usual --- have I ever told you that we compete each year at Christmas to see who can generate the most Christmas cards to be sent to our home? I won this year).

Well, Halis has already set up a Flickr account: A Dad In Love. And his first pic is of our son and my Dad --- eating pancakes on Christmas morning. I love it. And I look forward to the beautiful pics he will take in the future.

Enjoy the camera Daddy --- soon we will be having a friendly competition over whose photos can generate the most flickr comments :)

Love,

Jodi

Day 10: Walking the Dog.

I am 10 days into my "30 Days of the Everyday" photography project and am lovin' it. What a great way to photographically chronicle our lives - by participating in these sorts of group projects via Flickr. My cousin has begun participating in the "Project 365" project ... and there are so many others to join in or create on your own.

Here are a few to check out:
