Word of the Day

I've seen, and been inspired by, many "photo a day" projects, so I thought I'd try one myself, with my own little grammarian spin: create a photo using a Word of the Day gadget on my Google homepage for guidance and inspiration. And what better day than January 27, my thirtieth birthday, to begin such an undertaking? (Okay, maybe new year's day, but I was too lazy to bother then.) This project is also to help keep me thinking and creating images the way DGrin's Last Photographer Standing contest has challenged me to do--a challenge I've found really enjoyable and creatively stimulating. Wish me luck (and perseverance) in this endeavor!

    August 10, 2008 (Day 197) Exalt: to praise, glorify, or honor Another from Mull, featuring Schmoo.I'm so disenchanted with my images from this trip now, I don't even want to process them anymore. I'm hoping this will pass soon, but I'm uncertain it will. I was so proud before of what I came back with, but I keep getting put to shame by the truly outstanding landscape photography out there and it makes me want to throw up my hands and quip, "Why bother?"I still don't understand how to best process landscape images. I see it done well, and I think I get what was done, but I just don't achieve the same results. I think the likely culprit is impatience.
    August 8, 2008 (Day 195) Vexillology: the study of flags People study flags enough that they have their own "ology"? Who knew?Just playing around today. Trying out things I've always been curious to try.It occurred to me as I was working on this that it could be interpreted as the effects of having much too many shots with that glass. Totally not the goal (there was no goal beyond experimentation for this), but amusing nonetheless. Try looking at it without thinking that now. ;D
