Just Me

Slideshow of my project favorites here:
http://365project.org/pflaume/extras/2013-12-31

With this photo I complete my first 365 Project. What an amazing feeling of accomplishment it is! I had no idea how this project would grab ahold of me and become the focus of my life over 2013. With each passing day, I became more invested in it and more motivated to learn and improve. I have to admit that some days I cursed it, feeling burdened and uninspired. But, mostly, it brought me great joy and fulfillment.

Heartfelt thanks to this community. I learned so much about photography from studying your work and reading the discussion boards. I appreciated you sharing your talent and knowledge so freely. It was an unexpected delight to make online friendships both near and far. I looked forward every day to seeing the world through your lenses. Mostly, thank for your support. Your visits, comments, and favs were a constant source of motivation and inspiration for me. I mean it when I say I could not have done this without you.

To my non 365 friends and family members who viewed my posts and cheered me on. Thank you for taking the time out of your lives to drop by and check in on my little project. It has meant a lot to me.

I end this year with a selfie - my first ever and one I never thought I would post. It seemed like the right time to step out from behind the camera and just be me.

I will be continuing on in Year 2 after a short break. I plan to spend January organizing my photos, making an album of the year, and just recharging a bit. It’s my goal to be back in February (if I can stay away that long!).

For any who might be interested, I made a photo slideshow of some of my favorite images from the year. It is located in my Extras album.

Enjoy your little break, and will look forward to seeing you back - soon, I hope.

......a wonderful selfie ... love it ... its great to put a face to a name especially since we interact almost on a daily basis ... although strangely this comes pretty close to the face I had imagined ... kind of feel we've already met :-) ....congratulations on such a stellar achievement my dear friend ... you have truly been a inspiration for me with your spectacular images ... and your knack of seizing a photo-oppurtunity when none exists ... I have really valued your kind and thoiughtful comments on my images right from the time I have joined this project ... I think I can honestly say I consider you as one of my fav'est 365 photographer and friend ...!!

I love your selfie!! It's so fun to 'meet' you in front of your camera so this was a perfect end of year - end of album shot. I also loved your movie! You have had a fantastic year of beautiful photos, those recognized on TT and PP and many many more. It's been so much fun to be on this journey together almost from the beginning and I do feel like I've gotten to know you as well. I'm glad to see you are staying on in 2014. I'll be curious to know what your thoughts are for managing the project and if you're going to do the daily photo/daily post as your goal. I've just loved your project and yours is one of the ones I dutifully check as I don't want to miss a shot! All the best to you in 2014!

January 2nd, 2014  
@pflaume ha Lisa, you described really good how I feel too but in a certain way it's always more difficult to express my feelings in another language...and the funny thing was that, just a second before i read your words my husband was looking over my shoulder reading comments from several people and you were in that row so I told him about your finished project and that you are one of the people I really enjoy to follow and that, if you would have lived nearer, maybe somewhere in Europe, I maybe would have tried to make an appointment for a meeting... :-))
January 2nd, 2014

You are such a kind and caring person, a friend, and a mentor to me. Thank you for always taking the time to view and offer insightful comments on my images. Thank you for celebrating my successes with me. Thank you for just being a good friend. I hope that we will see each other again this year either in Boise or Bear Valley. That would be wonderful!

Oh fabulous selfie Lisa, what a treat to see you, and I loved what you wrote, if I was more articulate that is exactly what I would have liked to have said, but pictures are my words. I have loved following and viewing your work, so often wishing that I had taken the shot myself, what an inspiration you are. I shall now look forward to our continued journey, although mine might be alittle less stressful from now on. A very Happy New Year to you.

@sjouk Oh yes! I would love a meeting, too!! How wonderful that would be! Your English is amazing, Sjouk. I forget that you are communicating in a 2nd language. That would make this project all the more challenging. I am very impressed by you!!

@joemuli Joey, you are so sweet! Thank you! I can't tell you how happy I am to see you back here! I am sorry that you have gone through a difficult time. I worried it was something like that when you left abruptly. I hope that you are finding a new peace and balance. It's easy to feel overwhelmed here but please don't. Just do what you can and be OK with that. This community loves and admires you. No expectations, just acceptance, OK?!!

January 4th, 2014  
So that's what you look like! What a beauty you are! And thanks for the inspiration you've provided all of us this past year - not only in your fantastic images and compositions, but also in your eloquent manner of describing them. And thanks for the instructional tips as well. Wish I have grown as much as you have, but alas, I've been so scattered this past year that I haven't truly been able to focus on understanding my camera as you have. So thanks again for being a great role model!
January 4th, 2014  
Fabulous final shot! Good for you and great, great self-portrait! Love the smile, the flowers, and the hat. So glad that you will staying on, and look forward to seeing your work again after your break!

I look forward to all your wonderful images to come!
January 5th, 2014  
@jo13 Dear Jo, Sorry for the delay in responding to your lovely message. I am trying to keep my 365 Project time to a minimum. A break should really be a break, right? I know you are doing the same so hopefully, you will still receive this. Thank you for your sweet words. They meant a lot to me. It was your comment about selfies on one of my reflection shots that got me thinking it's a good idea to do. A name to a face is a nice thing, especially after the experience we have all been through together. So, thank you for that push. Thanks also for being the wonderful inspiration that you are. You are amazingly talented! Your images blow me away time and time again. Thank you for your support through it all. I appreciated every visit, comment and fav. Looking forward to continuing this journey with you soon.

Hi Lisa, I'm here!.... but like you I'm trying to have a breather, which I have to say i'm rather enjoying, only picking up my camera because I want to and not because I have to. Look forwrd to seeing you again very soon.

@elaine55 Hi Elaine, Thank you very much for your lovely comments on this post and my end of year slideshow. They made my day! It has been a pleasure to get to know you and follow your journey here. By the way, don't worry about the later finish! I'm just glad you are keeping on with it. You will feel such a sense of accomplishment when you get to the finish line. It's worth the aggravation along the way. :) Happy New Year to you and your family, too!
January 12th, 2014  
@gozoinklings Aww.. thanks Catherine! I appreciate you stopping by to leave me a message. I do miss 365 and had to keep myself away for the first few days - almost like dealing with withdrawal! I have enjoyed the more relaxed days and less time on the computer. I have actually picked up a book for the first time in ages! Missing you and your inspiring shots though! By the way, congrats on being a fences finalist. You had a real contender!
January 12th, 2014  
@kandkids Thank you so much, Karen! I really appreciate your comment. Best wishes to you as you continue your project. See you soon!

@lilminimonka Thank you, Brianna! I appreciate your comment. Welcome to the 365 Project! You will love your journey here.
January 12th, 2014  
@pflaume sadly i have far too many chickens on / thru fences :o( yes, i can totally see 365 needing some kind of rehab but being a release too - you should perhaps be thinking about printing and selling your work - so long { until you are back!! }
January 12th, 2014  
Such a beautiful selfie Lisa. Congratulations! Look forward to your pictures.
January 14th, 2014  
Sorry I missed this until today! Congratulations on completing the year! I'm so glad you're staying around as I love your work! A beautiful selfie!!

I've been missing you on here! Congratulations on such an incredibly completed project, Lisa.
January 16th, 2014

Congrats! I'm just starting!
January 18th, 2014  
cool selfie
January 21st, 2014  
I'm a little late to the party but congrats on finishing your year! Hope to see you back soon.
January 25th, 2014  
I am a little late to the party too, Lisa. But I hope you remember me from my previous incarnations. I had to stop (for the second time), and start a low key project as it all just got too big for me. I have enjoyed watching you grow and develop into a 365 icon. Kudos to you, sister, you are talented and creative, and nice to see a selfie from you after all this time! I thought you were just a shadow... instead you have a beautiful radiating smile :) Take care and enjoy, Lisa!
February 1st, 2014  
@tomtom Big Red, AndrewS, Fishy.... right?? I had to look through your shots to solve the mystery of your identity but think I got it now. Thank you so much for you comment. An icon is too big of a word for me, but I can agree on the growth and development. Same to you, my friend. I have so enjoyed following your photography and have often wished I could tag along for some of your night photography. I know I could learn so much from you. I know you have had a lot of job stress in your life over the last year. I hope things in that area have settled down and you are in a good place again. So glad you are continuing here. I am off to follow you so that we can keep in touch. Thanks again for your sweet comment and your support & friendship over the past year.
February 1st, 2014  
Yep, you got me :)
February 2nd, 2014  
Beautiful selfie! I'm looking forward to seeing what the new year brings!
February 3rd, 2014

Lisa, your photos are awesome! Great to see a selfie for your 365th pic. Congratulations!
February 7th, 2014  
Congratulations, Lisa! So glad you'll be continuing. I sooo appreciate your gorgeous photos. Here's to a wonderful year ahead!
February 7th, 2014  
So many comments (and all so deserved)! I missed this huge event and I just wanted to add my congratulations to the list.
