January Photo a Day Challenge

I have joined with nearly 40 other photographers around the world in challenging myself to take a photograph every day in 2011. I don't know whether I'll make it through the entire year but I did complete January. I am posting a selection of shots from January here:

This was a still life from January 1st


Fooling around with the camera on Jan 2nd to create an equine abstract.


Horse shoes on Jan 11, after a visit from the farrier.


Working on sunlight 'stars' on Jan 13



A slice of lime on Jan 22nd


"I have one last nerve and you are standing on it." My dogs on Jan 27


Sunset behind a barn on Jan 30


The group has a humorous approach for those days when you are laying in bed and realize that you've forgotten to take a photo; you lean over and take a shot of your slippers.
