Last year I made it four months before unexpected circumstances put a halt to it. This New Year, I will try again and pray that it will be a better year (I don't need another one like last year!)

I also hope to work on better photos and not just taking a shot for the sake of taking a shot to meet my daily photo need.

Hopefully these challenges will give me a new drive. Let's just say that some life events have a way of sapping that away from you.

Day 1

And here we go.............

Today got off to an overcast start with rain in the forecast, so I figured I needed to get what I could while I could. Ha!

The same shot, processed once with Capture NX-D and once in PS Elements to see differences.

Before I post anything about today, let me clear up yesterdays photo. It was not a Sundog as near as I can determine it was the birth of a rainbow. Ha!

Now back to the daily photo posting.

I didn't feel like getting out today, so I played with the OCF. I don't know if I will ever get exactly what I want, but these are a couple of shots of a Christmas ornament that was given to me as a memorial ornament to my wife.

Sunset shots from tonight. And here I thought I wouldn't have another chance for a Dusk shot for the weekly challenge. Oh well. Ha!

These look good.
I posted my dusk shot, but it was far from perfect. ISO of 500 gives horrible noise. So, I got artsy with it. It wasn't nearly the quality of what I would normally post in a challenge, but I am trying to enter more often.

A plane

American Kestrel that just keeps hanging around the same power pole. He was flying around and I thought I had missed him. Then on the return trip around the place he had landed in one of his usual spots. One shot and he was gone. At least he let me get one.
