Photography

365 Day Project

Follow me on Instagram to see each day’s photo.

View fullsize 365. I finished. A creative challenge to myself. As I look back at this year, it was difficult to choose only ten favorites. I think I could easily choose 50 or 100. This year was a challenge to see the beautiful among the difficult. Among bus
