A Photo A Day [Day 32]

Day 32

Tomorrow's my 29th birthday, the beginning of the end. Hence the tombstone as a reminder that I'm not as young as I used to be. Happy birthday to me.

I actually have a really good attitude about my birthday and see it as a fun excuse to eat lots of cake and blow my diet for a day or two. For those of you keeping score, the cupcake is for breakfast, not to be confused with the cake that will be arriving later in the day with my mom and little brother. I like to start the party early and make it last all day.

Day 31

Yeah, most of the fruit in my house is rotten and past being tasty. I'm still gonna eat it because I'm too cheap to throw it out. Snatch it from the Grim Reaper's clutches before he has a chance to fully claim it.

Day 30

I hope you all appreciate today's photo because I stumbled upon a snake in the process of taking today's pictures and nearly gave the poor guy a heart attack. Some might say he shrieked like a girl and jumped back ten feet as a result. As my husband was within earshot but didn't see the commotion that's the story I'm sticking with to explain what he may have heard.

I'll assume you're all far more talented at using Photoshop than I, but just in case you're not here's the tutorial I followed to get the black and white effect with a pop of yellow.

Bonus photo because I couldn't pick my favorite:

A Photo A Day [Day 29]

Day 29

Naively, when I started this project just a month ago it didn't even occur to me that the person hosting the challenge might not make it to the end. I may have had those fears about myself but here we are at the start of week five and she hasn't updated the theme for this week or even uploaded any of her own pictures for over a week. Definitely not a good sign, but also not a reason for me to give up on my personal endeavor.

I've already been uploading my pictures to 365 Project mostly for the handy organization and easy method to share my photos with my friends on Facebook. Now they come to the rescue with their fun weekly themes. This week's is still life so this is my first attempt at that. Not sure I entirely grasp the concept but I'll give it a whirl as the week progresses.
