Day 130 of 365 days. I’ve had a monster headache most of the day today. Honestly I considered just tossing a lame backup shot as the picture for today, but since I kind of had a cop out picture yesterday, I decided that i really needed to put something good on today. Then I realized.…

Day 129 of 365 days. I had to make a CD of some of my design work for a job I applied for. They want to do a portfolio review. I was hoping to get a clearer reflection of myself in the CD but oh well. Like I said, I’m trying to be a little…

Day 123 of 365 days. This is actually something I wanted to do for a while. Kind of an abstracted self portrait. Actually its just a macro of my skin. I hadn’t been able to really get it before because I couldn’t get my hand far enough away from the 300mm lens to focus on…

Day 119 of 365 days. Today after work, Steph and I went to a going away party for a couple we know. It was an evening of fun where we discussed politics and books and college and football and tv shows. Had a great time with old friends and some that I didn’t even know.…

Day 113 of 365 days. Two days in a row with two backup pictures. Had a very busy day. Spent the morning painting the attic with Steph and then this evening went to Jill’s birthday dinner. I actually did take some pictures there but mostly other people. Actually took this one at her place while…

Day 112 of 365 days. There were many opportunities for a kick ass picture today. There was a torrential downpour this morning. A massive windstorm this afternoon and I went to a flickr event this evening. And yet none of the photos I took compared to this. And so here’s what we have. What I…

Day 111 of 365 days. So far, I had more or less gone out of my way to not really repeat ideas for the entire year. But I got to thinking last night that really, the vast majority of my self-portraits (and everyone else in the world’s portraits for that matter) amount to "here’s a…

Day 110 of 365 days. Today, I am 30% of the way through this project. In some ways it feels like I just started and in other ways it feels like I’ve always been doing this. Wanted to play with something different today, so I opted to see what I could do with my new…

Day 109 of 365 days. It’s been a while since Steph co-starred in a self portrait with me. I had this idea tonight. We had earlier done a picture of our hands together back on day 60, so why not do one of our feet? A fitting tribute to date night, I think. If I…

Day 106 of 365 days. The worst part of the holiday season is the packing on of pounds. It starts with Thanksgiving dinner, moves through Christmas dinner and all the way to the drunken debauchery of New Years. Even on the non-important days like today, I end up doing silly stuff like going out shopping…

Day 103 of 365 days. One of my most favorite things in the whole wide world is my family’s rice pudding. I’ve loved it since I was a toddler. Imagine how surprised I was when I found out that when other people make rice pudding its actually, well, a pudding. My family makes a casserole…

Day 100 of 365 days. One hundred days. Never would have thought I’d make it that far. Wanted to do something special that might stand out a bit in order to commemerate it. I hope this fits the bill. I noticed that I hadn’t been doing as much photoshop gimmickery lately, and part of me…

Day 99 of 365 days. Tonight Steph and I went to a game night at a friend’s house. We hung out and talked and played cards and board games and I took a picture. I wanted to get a picture of me playing a game but none of them really came out the way I…
