Day 318 - Christmas ornament


One of the ornaments at our church.

Day 317 - Wazowski


Saturday's photo.

Day 316 - Bowling Party



Kenzie's swim team had a bowling party Friday evening.

Day 315 - Hula Girl


This was my 8-year-old daughter's Christmas gift to my wife that she bought at one of those school Christmas Shop sales. As for me, I got a World's Best Dad baseball.

Day 314 - Bicycle Wheel


From Wednesday.

Day 311 - Early Christmas Gifts


Still catching up, and this is from Sunday, when we opened Christmas gifts a day early at my parents' house. Kenzie is a huge Simpsons fan, and she got a complete figure set.

Day 310 - Reece Close-Up


I'm way behind on my blogging, with the holidays and all. I have photos from every day over the past week to post, and I'll work on getting caught up. To start, here's last Saturday's photo.

Day 309 - It's Finally Here


We got the upgrade to Photoshop CS3 today. Just installed it, and I can't wait to play with it.

Day 308 - No Photo

On Thursday, I just flat out forgot to take a photo. I really suck at this "Photo-A-Day" thing.

Day 307 - No Photo

I actually snapped a single quick sunset photo as I was leaving work Wednesday, but I learned a lesson. My camera was set to RAW, and I flipped the power off as soon as I snapped the photo, and all that was recorded was a black square. I didn't even double-check it because I was in such a hurry.

Day 306 - Ty & Whitley


Christmas photo of a friends kids from Tuesday.

Day 305 - "Macro"phone


A close-up of the end of a microphone we got here at the office. Now all we need are two turntables and we're set.

Day 304 - Just a Little Snow



It really didn't snow enough Sunday to even cover the ground, but some did stick to this weed in our backyard.

Day 303 - Another Swim Meet



We were in Maysville Saturday morning for another swim meet. The top photo is my daughter on the starting block showing off her skull tattoo the coach draws on them every meet.

Day 302 - Playing at a Christmas Party


From Friday evening. I love how the shallow depth of field blows up the Christmas lights in the background.

Day 301 - Christmas Play No. 2


I called Monday's post Christmas Play No. 1 because it was the first of two I had this week. This one from Thursday was for my daughter (center with glasses) that played a 1950s elf in her school play.

Day 300 - Christmas Photo Shoot





I was looking for something out of the ordinary for Day No. 300, and it happen to be the day I attempted (and I stress the word attempted) to get Christmas photos of my kids. My son is 3 and very active, so he's not the easiest guy to get a decent photo of.

Day 299 - Driving


I shot this on the way in to work Tuesday morning. Just playing around with the camera in the car.

Day 298 - Christmas Play No. 1


This was Reece's Christmas play by his daycare class (he's the one in the foreground who looks like he's throwing something off the stage). He wasn't as much of a performer as the other kids because he was more interested in the laptop that was running the screen behind them. Don't know where he gets that from.

Day 297 - Christmas Bear


From Sunday

Day 296 - Placeholder

I have a couple of photos from Saturday in Louisville that I took with a friend's camera, but I'm waiting to get them sent to me before I can post them, so this is a placeholder for now.

Day 295 - In Louisville with No Camera


So we get to the hotel in Louisville for our daughter's swim meet Friday evening. I pull out my camera to grab a shot from our hotel window when my little Fuji informs me that there's no memory card plugged in. My mind then goes right to my desk at work back in Ashland, where there sits the reader, card still inserted. So, I tried to make due with a cell phone photo, and wow are they bad.

Day 294 - New Toy


Too bad it's not mine, but it's one for the office. Still, it's fun to play with.

Day 293 - First Snow


A nice surprise this morning. Especially for our daughter who got the day off school. She tried to tell me when I made her go to bed last night that it was going to snow, and this morning she said she knew it would because she prayed for it to snow last night.

Day 292 - Traffic Light


From Tuesday.

Day 291 - My wife's Science Project


Well...actually it's our daughter's science project, but we like to joke about it. My wife has a lot at stake, she took third place last year.

Day 290 - Santa Hat


I had one brief chance Sunday to get a decent shot of Reece wearing a Santa hat before he refused to wear it again, and I blew it by not having the right settings on my flash (I didn't realize I had it on 1/16th power). I tried to salvage the photo best I could, but it's really full of noise. It's still kinda cute, though.

Day 289 - Decorations


Got a few more Christmas decorations put up on Saturday.

Day 288 - The Drive Home


Hate to post back-to-back sky photos, but it looked really neat again on the drive home Friday evening.
