For a long time I have wanted to try the idea of taking at least "One PIcture a Day." I have read this discipline helps one develop photographic skills. I have also wanted to develop "sharp eyes" that can see Interesting picture possibilities in the ordinary rhythm of life. I hope some of my photos will be beautiful, others may be unusual or serve as a photo journal. Some might be humorous and I expect some will be quite boring. Hopefully some will stimulate your thoughts and reflections.

Boy Reading
This is one of the sculptures of the Eau Claire Sculpture Tour 2014. The image is of one who is concentrating on what he is doing and he seems to be very intentionally focused on his task.
There is a message here for me. I have not kept up with my project of taking a "Picture a Day." In recent months other things have taken my time, energy, and interest. Well, I am going to try it again and we will see what happens.
Looking back I realized the idea of taking a photo a day helped me to learn by shooting different subjects, using different settings, and testing different perspectives. None will win any awards or hang on any walls but hopefully I will expand what I understand to be some possibilities in photography.
If you follow along, maybe we can learn together so I welcome your comments and suggestions.
Of course you know that some days the "Picture of the Day" will be taken quickly while in the midst of other things. Hopefully once in a while you will see results of the learning.

Pushing the Rocks Away
The energy and force of nature allows these delicate plants to push the rocks away to make room for their presence.
