Welcome

Following the third year of a holiday letter comprised
of my (increasingly complex) life via a (increasingly complex) year-in-photographs, I
wondered what it would be like to join the great experiment of 365 days of photographs.
I'm not a photographer,
I'm a writer. I'm a visual thinker, and if ever there was proof that a photo is worth a
thousand words, it would be the story a photo tells me, or in this case, about me.
Follow me on this adventure, where I
learn about photography, my ability to record my life, my dedication to something (I've
never been known for doing anything everyday) in my posts. I've also discovered I'm
learning about time, the history of it, and the odd practice of recording it, measuring it,
turning it into something tangible, and I'll record these explorations in the sidebar.
As always, feel free
to say anything. My experiment is not a spectator sport.

January 08 2009 The Breakfast Project

The first morning after the husband left for the mountains, and I'm still exhausted from the events of the other night. Thus, the kids can make their own darned breakfast. Yes, put the pancakes in the toaster. Yes, you can have two. Yes, you can have the icing from the french toast sticks. Yes, you can use the sprinkles. Will you just eat already?!



The macro feature was the one that worked best, and without the flash the shot just wouldn't come out. I'm still a bit shaky so I am impressed that at least one came out clear. The flash is too glarey, and I have no idea what made that shadow. I don't think I'm cut out to be a photographer, so it's a good thing I'm just running the point-and-shoot and not some expensive equipment. Who knows, maybe things will change!
