A bright new year by judithg

A bright new year

For 1st Jan 2011 I used 3 photos, for 1st Jan 2012 I used 4 and today I've used17.... Hmmm next year could be interesting. A beautiful sunny morning with which to greet 2013 and I'm feeling full of enthusiasm for a third year of 365. You might want to check back in a week when I'm searching for a shot on another dull day but for now my cup is half full. Should any new folk chance upon this then welcome! I was very shy about commenting at first so it took me a while to get going with the community spirit - my advice is to comment away - that way you'll make lots of friends who often 'unvirtualise' themselves and become real.
Three good things:
1. A sparkly new year.
2. Snapping random numbers in town.
3. Dr J's gin - introduced to me by the barman at the Arts Cinema last night - he showed me how empty the bottle had become - not surprising given how strong he made my G&T. No more until I've lost 10lb ...sigh.
Such a clever and creative way to start the new year!

I'd say your cup is overflowing Judith, judging by the superb pics you have been posting recently......love your last two montages ......montage sounds so much better than collage :) ....happy new year

This has definitely made my day brighter. Much needed as it's dreary around here. Must Fav this too. Really love these collages.
January 1st, 2013  
Awww well done. Maybe I'll join you on that quest for less body in 2013 ;o) xx
January 1st, 2013  
@meisen325 Thanks Monica - I so enjoyed yesterday's that I went straight into another - a year of collages I wonder.... Maybe not!
January 1st, 2013  
@judithg You could do one a week!
January 1st, 2013  
@meisen325 Actually if I get stuck - I do get obsessions with things like doorbells - it could be a outlet!
January 1st, 2013  
Love the colorful collage!
January 1st, 2013  
@judithg Think you should go for it.
January 1st, 2013  
ha ha great idea. 20% discount? Sales aren't what they used to be! 10lbs. Yep I could do with loosing that. Let me know how I can do that without changing anything :-)
January 1st, 2013  
Great collage Judith .
January 1st, 2013  
@fueast At the moment I need to do something radical just to make sure I don't gain it :0(
January 1st, 2013  
Oh Lordy Judith, I think it's 10lb for me too - had v long walk today then back ravenous and was lured by a tin full of Belgian chocolate biscuits . . . Fabulous montage, brilliant!
January 1st, 2013  
@tishpics There is an enormous box of Belgian chocolates just in my left hand peripheral vision - I'm hoping Adam will do his worst with them - he's skin, muscle and bone and eats like a horse. The trouble with fresh air and exercise is it makes you hungry!!
January 1st, 2013  
Lovely collage.
My diet was supposed to start tomorrow, but I still have copious bars of Dairy Milk left. Pity. ;)
January 1st, 2013  
@humphreyhippo Well it would be a crime to waste those...actually did you have to mention chocolate?!
January 1st, 2013  
@judithg Tell me about it! I am chuckling at the idea of your chocs 'just in my left hand peripheral vision'! Wonder how long they will stay there . . .
January 1st, 2013  
Hey judith remember me? ...im backto harrass and be sarky lol great collage ill have to take some time to take a look back on your work
January 1st, 2013  
@ditto44 I certainly do!! Great to see you back - not enough sarkiness round here!!
January 1st, 2013  
Absolutely cool. I'm with you re 10 lbs
January 1st, 2013  
What a wonderful start! Clever collage! Happiest of Happy New Years! As @peggysirk says - "here we go........." ! !!
January 1st, 2013  
HAPPY 2013 to you! Love your numbers collage, the 20% discount is the best sign!
January 1st, 2013  
really like this Judith - for a fleeting minute I thought you were going to go AWOL on us. welcome to year 3...I reckon its the easiest year so far...something to do with not being so pressured or precious! I'm on a great diet...I've done it a few times in the past...I never really feel hungry with it, fills you up on good stuff! recipes are all quick too; always lose 5-7lbs in 2 weeks. All my jeans are massively tight and I had a look earlier and they are all 30" waists..no bleeding wonder! I must be at least a 33-34" at the minute! triathlon training should do it...why don't you join me???
January 1st, 2013  
@sparkle Where do I find that diet?! Does cycling into town and walking on the dry AND through puddles count as triathlon training?
January 1st, 2013  
@judithg sounds pretty much so...you have to wear a wetsuit though! I've got to look the diet sheet out for a couple of mates...I'll ping it through to you
January 1st, 2013  
@sparkle You're a star - a sparkly star!!
January 1st, 2013  
What a wonderful collage and a great idea. you just gave me my resolution # 1 for this year: collecting 20 14's pictures!! bonne annee Judith...
January 1st, 2013  
What a fun collage, Judith - so creative! Happy New year to you!
January 2nd, 2013  
I found myself lost in your numbers for a sec there :) Great idea Judith and nice result! All the best of luck for those 10 kilos!
January 2nd, 2013  
Happy new year! Love the numbers game to start your project this year.
January 2nd, 2013  
Love it! Happy New Year to you, Judith!!
And I'm right with you on the 10 lb.weight loss wagon (sounds easier as 4.5 kg).
January 2nd, 2013  
A perfect way to start the new year. I remember your January 1st shots from the last two years - I loved them both and I don't like this one any less. Yep, 2013 will be a great year :)!
January 2nd, 2013  
Best wishes
January 2nd, 2013  
Fun shot! Wish I only had ten pounds to lose........
January 2nd, 2013  
Happy New Year! Love the shot and all the fun comments!
January 2nd, 2013

January 2nd, 2013  
Absolutely love this, the balance is wonderful and the photos clear and sharp. Great collage.
