365/365 - 1 Year in Pictures Completed Today!

I did it, I've managed to complete the 365 Photo project and it feels so great that I was able to do it. It's been a long tough year with many ups and downs. I've been frustrated at times and had great ideas others, but all in all it was well worth the project. I'm starting a different one tomorrow believe it or not!

I shot this in the backyard today with a little help from my remote shutter, and a can of orange spraypaint!

...Celebrate , good times , come on!!!...

Day 364/365 - Let them know it's christmas time and .....

Twas 2 nights before Christmas and all through the house, Michelle, Brendon and CJ were sleeping, and I took this picture.. heh heh...

Simple shot of the wrapping paper tubes in the living room, it's good to keep this stuff around for years to come.

...feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time and.....

Day 363/365 - like a chica cherry cola.....

Had a little work party the other day and I couldn't find anything worthwhile to take a picture of, I snapped this closeup though and noticed myself in the bottle reflection.

Simple using my prime lense, handheld outside sunlight streaming in through the window

...Ohh I want you I don't know if I need you but...

Day 362/365 - Living in a fisheye lens.....

I thought with only a few days left, I'd shoot a picture of some of the lenses I have been using this year, minus the 50mm prime which took the picture. Here they are, they aren't the best of lenses but they work well in my situations.

Used the 50mm with backlighting from lamp in living room. Handheld.

...caught in the camera eye...

Day 361/365 - Walkin' in a winter wonderland....

I thought this drift along the edge of my driveway looked so neat so I plopped into the snow and snapped a few shots... If I only hadn't disturbed the bottom part of the drift

Shot with the Tamron 200mm which is proving quite difficult the barrel is messed up. Still captured what I wanted though .

...sleigh bells ring, are you listen?.....

Day 360/365 - 'Cause I'm a real straight shooter, if you know what I mean.....

Spent way too much time trying to mount 2 doors in the house, both interior but working with the strange size openings and old hinges was a bit of a challenge. I noticed the tape measure lying around later and set up this shot.

I love the way I focused on a section of the measure and blurred everything else. You know what it is but can only see a portion of it

....Baby are you holding, holding anything but me?....

Day 359/365 - There may be, a little dust on the bottle.... (PC Series 5)

Last day of the pc series, I'm out of ideas. I did like the way the pc screen reflected through this glass bottle so that's why I used this as the last in the series.

Shot with prime lenses through the bottle to the monitor in the background, I like the colors and the way it's blurred

....but don't let it fool ya about what's inside....

Day 358/365 - I've got (files) , They're multiplyiin'.... (PC Series 4)

Ahhhh, so many files to put back on the computer from the backup drive, they are going , slowly as it my be. I didn't realized I had that many files to copy , wow...

Not a great shot, but wanted something for this ongoing series this week. It captures the moment however

..and I'm losin control....

Day 357/365 - Alright I'm Ready Make me glow, glow, glow, glow..... (PC Series 3)

Left the room after turning on the backlit keys of the keyboard and thought a perfect shot for the 3rd day of the PC upgrade series. I may have taken one of this before this year, I don't remember anymore...

Used the tripod to capture a clear shot of the keys from above

...How far can you go
Make me glow, glow, glow, glow....

Day 356/365 - Only you, can make this world seem right... (PC Series 2)

Second day of preparation for the upgrade. I had this hard drive in a box for so long it was waiting to be used inside this along with my 3 350GBs already inside. This one is for the media files

Simple closeup shot using the desk lamp for lighting

...only you can make the darkness bright....

Day 355/365 - Start me up.... (PC Series 1)

Back when windows 95 launched they started a campaign with the Rolling Stones them song, I don't know what they used for this launch but here is the start of my computer installation week, decided to upgrade the beast to the latest OS.

I love the way the disc reflected the colors in this shot.

...start me up , i'll never stop....

Day 354/365 - You better watch out, you better not cry....

Taken some pictures of the baby in his Christmas outfit. He looks so funny and cute in this thing. The little bugger wouldn't sit still for long to grasp a picture,but I thought this one was fitting in front of the fireplace.

Used the flash so I could get him in case he moved, no other lighting set up.

...you better not pout I'm tellin' you why....

Day 353/365 - 'Cause I'm a real straight shooter, if you know what I mean...

This was at Rob's 40th birthday party on Saturday and I thought I'd try a few shots from the people playing pool. Here is his cousin' Sarah lining up a shot.

Nice shot with the field of depth in the foreground and the blurred background

....'Cause I'm a real straight shooter, if you know what I mean...

Day 352/365 - I really can’t stay (Baby, it’s cold outside).....

Taken behind the Dave's Market in Smithfield, RI. It has gotten very cold out recently the start of winter of course. I had been cooped up at home for most of the week due to being sick so after taking pictures of nothing much inside, I needed something different.

I think this picture captures the starkness of the landscape very nicely

....I’ve got to go ‘way (Baby, it’s cold outside)....

Day 351/365 - There's a (moon out tonight) whoa-oh-oh ooh....

By the glow of the moon , I mean computer screen Michelle is engaged in some Facebooking or gaming activity. She seemed not to be perturbed by my incessant camera pointing at her, 3rd day of being home she's so supportive of my suffering... right ? :)

... I liked the shadows and the glow this shot from this angle created...

...There's a (girl in my heart) whoa-oh-oh ooh....

Day 350/365 - And it seemed to me you lived your life like a candle in the wind...

2nd day of misery I was grasping at straws for pictures since I wasn't leaving the house, this had to do. It's a tall candle and some asian canister set on the countertop by the sink outside our bathroom.

Taken at a kneeling position, countertop level...

....Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in.....

Day 349/365 - The nighttime sniffling sneezing coughing aching stuffy head fever.....

I got sick last week with a horrible stomach bug that I probably picked up from the baby, I almost didn't get a picture in this day or the next , I needed something and this is what I saw , no energy to do much ...

not the greatest shot but since I wasn't in the greatest of moods it had to do..

...so you can rest medicine...

Day 348/365 - Missing post from 3/12/09 - Double Oops!

And here is the other lost post! I always wanted to drive one of these things at least to try it out and feel the power behind that machine.. ha ha...

Now I'm caught up on numbering and can end on the right day I wanted too!! :) Yay...
