2010 Year in Pictures!
Happy New Year from Digital Photography Blogs!
Here we go, friends. I’m kicking off another Year in Pictures project, starting with this hilarious and ominous Cylon I gave to Chris for Christmas this year. What can I say? We are sort of huge Battlestar Galactica fans.
I’m a glutton for punishment, I think. With a busy toddler and preschooler, an in-the-launching-stages photography business, a stack of books at least 10 high next to my bed and a desire to see my husband each day more than just in passing, I don’t know how I will fit everything in. But I’m so excited to give it a go. My life is pretty busy. (Who’s isn’t, right?) But I think a project like this one is just what my photography has been missing lately. I’ve been lethargic about picking up my camera for anything more than just snapping holiday memories of my kids. And I’ve been even worse about posting. Let’s face it—what’s the use of taken pictures if they are just going to be stuck on your SD card or filed away in a folder on your hard drive to be forgotten about? I’m guilty!
It’s time I got shooting again. It’s time I got inspired again. It’s time I started shooting a little for fun and a little for me. I’ll be posting when I can to keep you all in the loop about my progress and what new things I’m seeing from behind the lens.
And, let’s be honest, how can I back out now that I’ve gotten the Cylons involved?
So…who’s with me?
Responses and Conversations
Nice! I have yet to do a project like that.
Short story: A few weeks ago I went to an “open mic” night at Home Brew. I was playing percussion for a group and I showed up when I was told. When I got to Home Brew, I saw Chris. He looked very familiar, but I couldn’t place him. Long story short, after discussing various mutual friends, it dawned on me that I subscribed to your blog and I mentioned it to him. Small world?

Ha – Matt, yes it IS a small world. When Chris told me about that I knew
exactly who you were (well, from your photos, since we haven’t met.) You
were even one of our contest winners at one point last year, weren’t you?
I’m sure we’ll be back to open mic again soon, so if you’re there be sure
to stop by and say hi.
Re: the photo project. It’s a huge undertaking and I’m wondering why I
jumped in again. But I guess it’s sort of “go big or go home” for me at
this point!

Oh my gosh, you’re gonna do it! I was just saying to Shayne yesterday that I might bite the bullet and do it this year. Now I’m really REALLY thinking about it.

Okay, no more thinking. I’m going to do it! Year in Pictures, here I come!

Woo hoo, Steph! So glad to have a partner in crime in this project. Now we have some accountability.
And what I noticed from 2008 the last time I did this project: I thought I’d be overwhelmed with doing it during a year that I birthed a baby, but strangely it kept me grounded through it all. Good luck!

Here goes nothing! I’m a little nervous, but I got into a total rut in 2009, so I need something to keep me going. This came at the perfect time. Thanks Amy! I look forward to seeing your pictures!
