Part III – Winter

This is the third and final component of 2007 My Year In Photos series, which covers my trips between November and December. It’s been a fun project. I’ve enjoyed looking back on my mini-adventures over the past year. Hopefully I’ll be able to get back to it sooner rather than later.

Project: Year-in-Photos!

Year-in-Pictures
2007 Edition

So, I frequently check another blog service’s ‘question-of-the-day’ site for fun. I figure if one strikes me as interesting I’d answer it to give some variety to my blog. Well, since the year is winding down most of the questions are about the best or worst of this past year. One of those questions challenged the reader to pick his or her best photo of the year. Interesting, but I’ve taken over 10,000 pictures, so it would be a difficult decision. However, it did give me an idea.

I’m going to do a Year-in-Pictures series! I’m going to pick one picture from each photo trip I’ve taken. My guidelines for the picture selection will be as follows:

- No Repeats: I’m not going to pick one I put in the original post or anywhere else on the blog. I take a over a hundred pictures during most of my walks, there’s no need to re-use any one of them.

- Pictures of Interest: The photo doesn’t have to necessarily represent the area/location, but has to be somewhat interesting. I tend to take a lot of leaves or flowers pictures, which turn out nice, but I don’t usually post them because they don’t fit in with explaining my trips. So, this could be a chance to show some of those off.

- Add Variety: I don’t want to end up with all macro-type photos or just different views of things I’ve previously posted. I need some variety, so I’ll make a point to choose different pictures (as much as possible). Close-ups or just random things I found along the walk or so forth.

It’s going to have to be a series of three, since I’ve taken over 50 trips since June. It should be fun to review the last six months and look through my pictures again. Really, what else am I going to do? I have plenty of time at the moment in my current condition.
