13 January 2010: The Show Must...Come Down

These were the three pieces I had in the Syracuse Photographers Assocation show. It came down last night amidst a gallery party for our members. We are already planning our next show!

12 January 2010: Chillaxin'

Mona had not made an appearance this year so I figured it was time...still cute as ever as she chillaxes in her memory foam bed!

11 January 2010: Nonpareils

I got nothing...just nonpareils

10 January 2010: Life's A Ditch

Today we went back out the the frozen tundra/winter wonderland. The skies were bluer, the sun was brighter and I was ready for more photography! It was even more magical than than yesterday...that is until I drove into a ditch! I assumed the edge of the road was solid because it was a few hundred feet before...but alas it was a soft shoulder. Thank goodness for AAA...they were there in about 20 minutes. Bill napped in the car while we waited and I walked around the road doing guess what...taking photographs!

9 January 2010: Frozen Tundra

We ventured out today for a drive because the sun actually came out for a bit and the sky was blue.  Amazing after 12 straight days of snow!  It was frigid out.  I had a hard time getting the camera to work, not to mention my fingers.  The pains of photography are never-ending...first I broke my ankle and now frost bite!

8 January 2010: Is The Freedom Rock(s)?

Well turn it up, dude! Who remembers that commercial?  No, not freedom rock just some stones in a candle holder! 

7 January 2010: Lost Little Lady

We found a ladybug in the house to our surprise since it is January and they are usually not around in weather this cold.

6 January 2010: Water Wizardry

I was doing some dishes today and while cleaning a bottle, the water erupted off the top. I captured some cool stuff during this water fall experiment!

5 January 2010: Only A Foot(ish)

Apparently Syracuse and Fulton, NY have been mentioned several times on The Today Show and I have had a few people contact me asking if we were buried in snow. Luckily I live about 20 minutes south of Syracuse which is 30 minutes south of Fulton. Fulton has gotten about 4 feet of snow, Syracuse about 2 feet and here in Jamesville...ONLY a foot.

Luckily we have good and plenitful snow plow drivers so our roads are clear and there has not been a run on milk and bread at the grocery store. We are working on day NINE of snow...luckily it is the light fluffy lake effect snow. The kind that does not accumulate quickly and come down even when the sun is out!

4 January 2010: Just Keep Snowing...

Just Keep Snowing...What does it do...It snows...It LOVES to snow...LA LA LA LA LA LA. Sub-reference to Finding Nemo and Dory's rendition of "Just keep swimming".

It has been snowing here since I returned from RI on December 28! Not heavy snow...just annoying constant snow.

3 January 2010: Window To The Cold

365/3Yeah...so it's another window looking outside. It is NEGATIVE 8 out there with the wind chill. I am not venturing out in that cold if I don't have to!

2 January 2010: Look Into My Crystal Window

365/22010 arrived with a cold front! So is it twenty ten, two thousand ten, twenty dime? What are you calling it???

The Year Of The Photograph

Can you find your favorite photograph in this collage? Here they are - all 520 photographs that I have posted to the blog in the last year! Yeah, I know it was supposed to be a photo a day so that would mean 365 photos but I got a little excited some days and posted more. So sue me!
