Half Way There! by laurentye

Half Way There!

I really can't believe I'm at the halfway point in this project! It seems strange...Some days this has felt so challenging, as if I wasn't sure that I would be able to do it EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. But other days, like today, it feels like time has gone by so quickly and it's surprising that it's been half a year already.

I was looking through my pictures on my computer -just quickly scrolling through my 365 file on my Mac- and it was funny how the pictures instantly bring up feelings and thoughts. For many of the photos, I can remember exactly what was going on in my life when the picture was taken. So strange, but good... An interesting way to look back on my year so far.

I felt some self induced pressure to take a "good" picture today, but decided I like this one because I think my camera deserves to be in a picture. The lens that is on it is the one I use probably 90% (or more!) of the time.

Congratulations on making to your halfway point. I shall look forward to following you the rest of the way Lauren. That's one thing that has never been in my 365 yet, is my own camera. I haven't taken a mirror shot yet.

I have the same camera, Lauren!! You're so right! When I read what you said I went to check my photos and guess what?? I have 186 photos..half way too! And I didn't notice that. Well, keep making us smile with your nice shots, my dear!

I guess it's not too bad...but it looks worse in the back than the front. It had a run-in with a goddamn inukshuk table centrepiece. Sharp rock bad for cameras!

Great idea taking a pic of the camera. Cool shot. I know what you mean about it being so challenging sometimes. I keep plugging along and hanging in there. Contrats on the half way mark for you.

It's a very clean, crisp shot against the white background. Your camera's not in hospital is it? :P Congrats on making the halfway milestone. I'm not even halfway yet (160)...just another couple of hundred to go. Sigh.
