A Picture A Day

A few years ago my aunt gave me a book called A Year of Mornings.  It is a picture project done  by two friends on opposite coasts of the United States.  For one year they each took a picture before noon and posted it to a shared web album.  They were not allowed to discuss the subject or mood of their photos but it was interesting how their themes and even the colors of their photos were often similar. 
Since we moved back I've been feeling busy and boring.  Like I don't have much to say (as you've probably noticed).  And like I have nothing around me worth photographing.  The year of mornings book is just pictures of ordinary things.  What they had for breakfast.  The family cat.  And they're really pretty.  And so, inspired by their project, I am starting my own Year of Pictures blog where from Dec 31 2010 - Dec 31 2011 I will try to take one picture each day and post it to the blog.  I want to see the beautiful in the mundane and learn to enjoy the everyday.  Here's the blog link if you want to follow along.  Our Year in Pictures
Happy New Year everyone.
