project 365: january

I just finished my first month on Project 365 and -- phew! -- what a challenge it is! Trying to snap one mildly interesting picture each day has opened my eyes to things I would not bother photographing before. Now it doesn't matter if I'm grocery shopping, or driving to work, or watching a movie: I feel like I have this project on the back of my mind all the time.

I'm happy to report that in 31 days I have included only two shots of the kitties. My cats are my favorite models (they're so cute and expressive!), so it's a real effort not to turn this into a 365 kitty album. Also, no cellphone pictures so far. I'm trying to go towards a more challenging path and leave the kitties for those days I'll be completely dry of ideas, and the cellphone for those days I forget to take my camera with me. I'm sure they will come eventually. Keep in mind there are still 11 months to go!
