Looking Back at Warmer Times
With the weather brutally cold in much of the United States, I thought I would put this photo up from last summer. It was one of the photos I nearly overlooked as I was doing Project365, "Oh shit, how did I end up 3 photos short with only 10 days left in the year!"
I wonder what the man on the platform is thinking.

My Year in Photos / Project 365 For 2008
On January 1st, 2008, I started out on an insane project that many other people have done: taking at least one photo every day for the entire year. After taking the photo, I eventually (usually not the next day) put them onto flickr. Some, but not all, of the photos have appeared here. But the photos are all in one set on flickr.
You may think taking a photo every day for 365 days is easy, but I actually found it really, really hard. It was extra hard in 2008 because there were 366 days.
I encourage you to take a look at the photo set that turned out. It's an interesting capsule into one year of my life.

Framing Prints
We had these frames at home that we've been meaning to use and I finally got around to ordering prints. This is how they seem to be turning out.

Old Towne Grove Chapel in Groveland, IL
Jessica and Chanse didn't actually get married in this tiny chapel, but the larger chapel in the same "complex". The Old Towne Grove Chapel was much more picturesque though.

A View of a Palm Tree
This is what it looks like when you're looking up while laying on a beach in Jamaica. Well, at least the beach I was on. I think I had a frozen beverage in my hands too.

Eating Cold Pizza is Best Done Pantless
Pantless, yes. But with the rest of your Easter outfit on.

Finally Some Results from the Holga
Way back over Christmas, I got a Holga as a gift. Well, I finally finished (or at least thought I finished) the roll last week and got it developed. I'm pretty pleased with the results considering it was my first time using it and I haven't used anything with film in it since like 2003 (or earlier).
