I took this picture in Culpeper County, Virginia on New Year's weekend.
I like geese.


This zoon didn't work too well, my hands are not as steady as they used to be...but I like the reflection of the gi-normous house on the ice!

Blackeye peas, rinsed and rinsed and rinsed again.

All the rest of the ingredients for hoppin' john!

Happy New Year's everyone~

365 Photo Challenge 2011

I've been following my friend Terri's blog on which she posts photos that she takes for each year's 365 Photo Challenge.  She is a fantastic photographer and I expect National Geographic to snap her up anytime now.  I'm a casual picture-taker.  I'll follow theme #88, "Every Day Sights."

Sometimes, I haven't taken pictures when I should have.  I like to see what's going on around me and absorb it.  Life seems to pass by so quickly, sometimes I am just afraid I might miss something if I am looking through a lens.

Meanwhile, here's a project that's been taking up a lot of my time since last summer.  This is just the "research proposal" part.  The actual project starts soon.
