Today’s picture was snapped by Ian. He picked up my camera and spent a long time peering through the lens, lining up just the shots he wanted. It was a joy to watch him. After he took this one, he reviewed it on the screen and whispered, “Oooh, that’s good.” I don’t think I could […]
Every year I get a little nervous on December 1. It’s because the beginning of the December Photo Project feels much the same to me as having a brand new blank journal. So exciting, so many possibilities. So probable that as soon as I fill up the first page (or the first three) I’m going […]
