Photo 365 - On Assignment

Hello There Everyone and Welcome to the Blog

I have three sets of photos here. The first is my photo project (the original page) entitled Photo 365 - On Assignment. It was a spin on a 365 photo project. I love the idea of the 365 project, but I needed a little more structure. I also needed some help getting out of my photographic comfort zone. I decided to take suggestions for monthly themes from the people around me and those who view my photos. I finished the project on January 15th, but please feel free to go back and enjoy my year in pictures.

The second page is dedicated to my favorite photographic subject, nature. Right now that page contains just photos I have taken in Everglades National Park. I just finished updating it, adding more photos, captions, and common and scientific names for all the shots. Please enjoy!

The third page is from the second UM Spring Football game in 2010. This was my first foray into sports photography. I was "working" this event with a friend of mine who blogs for a Hurricane's sports blog. All the shots came from the stands because we didn't have sideline passes, but I still got some decent shots. I hope to update this page with shots from this year's spring game. Go Canes!

Enjoy the blog!

BYE!

I have to say that I have really enjoyed this month's theme. Not only did it let me combine two of my favorite things, but it also let me relive my younger play times! Expect to see some more minifig photo shoots from me in the future...

Lost Pirates - "Aaarrrrhhh.... where'd they go, matey?"

Yep, that's right, I'm going to do a whole month of Minifigs. I know some people out there won't be happy with this, but ya know what? This is ain't their photo project! Also, I have totally been inspired by this guy's blog, A Lego A Day - check it out, he's a does a real nice job. Here we have the Lost Pirates, who have steered drastically off course... they aren't the best pirates out there. I mean seriously, they don't even have a boat, just have a raft for cris'sake! But at least they have a parrot!!!

Minifig Monday! (How to Train your Mini-Dragon)

WOOOOO!!!! Minifig Monday!!! The Wizard! A Mini-Dragon! I get way to excited for Legos. The weather outside is pretty nasty today, it's been raining hard all day and I'm not really feeling like taking my camera out there without an underwater housing. So I'm postponing November's official theme launch until tomorrow when hopefully the weather should be nicer. Until then, enjoy Minifig Monday!
