Incredibly it is almost the end of January! So, I thought it was time to check in on my Project365. So far: really fun! I'm enjoying finding something to photograph each day. Without children (the baby is borrowed) that is even more of a challenge (thus the dog photos). But I've gotten out in my neighborhood in search of a good photo and have hit some of Sacramento's highlights: the historic governor's mansion, the California Capitol building, and the tower bridge -- none of which I had ever photographed before.
The biggest challenge comes with the short days. If I don't take the photo before it gets dark, I'm sometimes stuck for a subject. But that gives me a chance to work on my still life photos, I guess. I'm working on stretching my understanding of the technical side of photography and really opening up my camera to see what she can do.

There are thousands of other people who are currently doing Project365s including multiple Flickr groups. Here are a few I follow:
