A YEAR IN PICTURES - LIFE IS SHORT!!

I managed to post a photo every day (mostly) as an exercise for a whole year and as you may have noticed I have been celebrating by posting videos for the last week. I am not sure what the next year will bring. I like a challenge and I like to try new things but I haven't figured out how to "theme" the next year yet. It has been cathartic for me personally and fun to be expressive visually while creativity flowed at times and ebbed occasionally too.
I see the next year as a sort of living sketch book with more Adobe CS3 software inspired design "stuff", more Art and less rules about what to post. For now I am posting a couple of slide shows with what got posted over the last year. I'll try to figure out how to synchronize it to music too. Really I want to say thanks for dropping in and thanks for leaving comments over the last year. Artists who work in isolation need contact from the outside world occasionally and blogging has really helped!!

An observation, one of the first images I posted was the STOP BEING AFRAID stop sign I shot over on rt. 146..... and the last post I made was ANGST the animated short by Emeil Penders. Interesting how both are about fear. I am glad the posting for the year ended on the ANGST short film since the little guy overcomes his fears inspired by the love he has for his dog. Cool
Now for something a little bit new.......

peace
