108/365: My big camera, my Nikon D300, was in the shop for what seemed like weeks, but it came back and I felt like commemorating the event.
109/365: My dog, Martha, gnawing on a bone. I love the way she holds it in place at the bottom. So cute.
110/365: This candle is usually not on the floor, but on the kitchen counter. I hope you feel better knowing that.
111/365: My grandmother had this platter and another one with a Paris theme in storage. I love them, but I haven’t figured out where they will go yet. But I took this for my mid-century loving friends, who would think it pretty cool.
112/365: The buds on the Star Magnolia shrub in my front yard are fuzzy. I love the way they last the winter like that, and in a few weeks, they will burst open in large white blossoms.
113/365: This fence is the view from my back porch. It glows during the golden hour. I like photos like this that show off depth of field (the term for how much or how little of the photo is in focus).
114/365: I bought this pillow for a buck at an antique mall. It is in excellent shape (sometimes these pillows harden up over time). I love the golden green color and the tufted buttons.
115/365: My sister-in-law (sort of) had a baby on this day. I was standing in the kitchen and idly thinking about the baby and how the world would change as he grows, and as I stood there I noticed the phone book. The phone book (and the reality of the “yellow pages”) are already almost obsolete in an age of 411 and Facebook and iPhones and all of that. By the time her son is in college, it’s hard to believe that phone books will still be printed in large quantities and left by your doorstep every year.
116/365: I bought two cheap pairs of glasses at Zenni Optical online, and this was the second pair. They turned out pretty well for the price. Another self-portrait.
117/365: Some family members gathered to celebrate my grandmother’s 81st birthday. I took a picture!
At the end of November, I posted Flickr calendar views of October and November. I’ve now made it a third of the way through this 365 Project! Can you believe that? Here are the calendar views for December and January. I made little images for both, but you can click on the images to go to Flickr.
