Fail...

Yeah, I expected it to happen. Lots of stuff came up this past week, and not one of the things that came up was motivation to photograph my mug.

I will continue this when I feel inspired again.... Right now I'll be busy updating photos for my friend's wedding.....


*HUGS* and talk to you all later.

Day 11

Working on my "details" shots... I love how my hair came out. Nikon D40X 50mm

Day 10

(Photo removed by myself for personal reasons)


It's been a few days, kind of been busy with some exciting things... But here is one from Thursday I thought I would share... I'll catch up soon.

Day 9

I was feeling red. Nokia N95

Day 8

(Photo removed by myself for personal reasons)

Me being silly with an old favorite snack... When I was in high school every once in a while, when hanging out with my good friend Yvette, we would stop in the local Asian supermarket "Kam Man Foods" to grab things for Yvette's mom or grandma (Ama (sp?)) I used to grab a box of these little "cookies" every time we were there. They have a thin cookie shell with a koala bear stamped on them, filled with strawberry cream or chocolate. I found these last night when I was shopping for Crab Stick for sushi.... This one's for you Yvette! (Mmmm they are still very yummy!)

Day 7

Walking in to my office building from the parking lot. HAPPY MONDAY! Taken with my N95 Cell phone cam.

Day 6

(Photo removed by myself for personal reasons)

Driving down Rt 80, probably doing 80mph... I do not recommend doing this while driving.... D40x I didn't really have the ability to adjust any settings on the camera, just what ever it was set to and did a wishful point and shoot masterpiece... it's OK, no masterpiece but I'll take it.

Day 5

Today I took Piper for my 4 mile walk... but somewhere along the last 1/4 mile she hurt one of her paws and limped all the way back. She's such a trouper, didn't give up. She took a long nap and seems to be OK now. But I'm keeping an eye on it, I think she may have just stepped on something. She loves a good scratch on the head from me, I think it made her feel better today.

Day 4

(Photo removed by myself for personal reasons)

Close up... Portrait taken with my D40X sitting at my desk.

Day 3

(Photo removed by myself for personal reasons)

There was a cat running around my neighbors yard... it was very interesting. Taken with my Nokia N95 cell phone

Day 2

Lost in a window full of Trix. Outside my office building soaking in some sun and fresh air before going back in to my windowless office. Photo taken with my Nokia N95 cell phone.

Day 1

(Photo removed by myself for personal reasons)


Here is my first shot... taken with my N95 Cell Phone Camera. I was not to happy with the way it came out, so I decided to go B&W and play with the contrast. I like it. Funny thing about this shot is that the ear in view is in so much pain. I am in a wedding in a few weeks and I received jewelry to wear as a gift. I had not worn earrings in so long that my holes had almost closed up.... After a few painful pushes the holes opened... now I have to suffer through a few days of pain while they heal. But here it is.... Day 1 portrait.


Happy Shooting !

A Portrait A Day

Following along with my tag line... "Up close and portrait" I've come up with a new photography project. For the next month I will take and post one portrait of myself, each and every day. I would like to do every day for a year, but with my track record... lets see if I can make it through the first month, then go from there.

This will be a collection of random images/portraits of myself, either staged or not, up close or far away... but it will be a portrait of my self or something representing my life each day of the month. I may not get to post EVERY day, but I will have a photo for every day posted.

Lets see where this new adventure goes.....
