long time gone

oh blog friends ... i've missed you so.

august rushed by in a flash.

and here it is mid-september.

i've been communing with nature these past weeks:

lying on my belly in fields of fading flowers;

crouching low to inspect mushrooms;

gazing up at the sky through a filagree of branches and stems.

 

so long, summer.

welcome home,  fall.

i've been waiting for you.

the 53 project : week 1

With my 365 project nearing an end and 2011 coming up, I'm embarking on a little twist on the traditional 52-week project.  In March I'll be turning 53, so I figured I'd document my 53rd year in a weekly series of 53 photo essays.

Many people do a series of self-portraits as their 52-week project.  For me?  Um....no.  I may throw a self-portrait in once a month or so...but that's it.  You'll thank me later.

Are you starting a 52-week or 365-day project this year?  Leave a link in the comments field and I'll create a link list to share with everyone  Even if you're not tackling a major project, I hope you'll join in by linking to your most interesting images or blog posts each week.

This week I captured the delicate beauty of the winter woods around Meetinghouse Farm and Bridge Creek Conservation Area in West Barnstable.

Oh, and don't forget to become a follower or leave a comment from time to time.  I'm going to be offering some fun giveaways to followers & commenters throughout the year, and you just may be the lucky winner.

Happy 2011!
