Week 41 - Superbowl Fever

The week started with the Patriots winning the AFC Championship!  The week ended with us visiting Martha's Vineyard for the MV Surfcasters Banquet.  The Vineyard was like a ghost town, with hardly any restaurants open.  Still it was relaxing and rejuvenating and with sunny days and Spring-like temperatures, plenty of opportunity for photographs (of course I was in a Church basement for all of the afternoon!).

Also, no flower shots this week.  Several of my readers were getting tired of them - so instead, I included a picture of my new generator!  Enjoy...

Week 38 - Summer-like Weather

The weather this week has been almost Summer-like, at least at the beginning and end of the week.

I experimented with something this week, and the result was photo #262 titled "One Shot, Three Me's".  I've been thinking about making this photo for a while now.  Tonight was my first attempt.  One exposure, multimple face shots of the same person (me).  I was looking for something spooky.   This is one photo (one shutter release), no Photoshop post-processing.

Incidently, 100 more days to go for this project (2012 is a leap year).

Here's this week's photos:

Day 266/January 7 - Winter Runner

Day 265/January 6 - Lilly Reflections

Day 264/January 5 - Winter is Coming

Day 263/January 4 - Yellow Flowers
