Photo Fun

I've gotten into Flickr recently. I'm not the best photographer ever, but it's fun to see other people's pictures and post some of my own. It's also been a fun excuse to look back at pictures I took back in the day. Feel free to check out my photostream. There are a lot of really good photographers out there, though, and I've been enjoying checking them out.

I've been having fun going through the 365 photos I took over the past year, choosing my favorite ones, and making a collage by month, too. So far I've only done June, July, August, September and January...it's been fun! I'm thinking once I finish I'll print them out and make a little book of sorts. Here's January:


I've also gotten back into Tweak Today (well, as of yesterday). Users basically come up with "missions" (or an idea of a theme for the day) and vote the ones they like/don't like up and down. Each morning one is chosen and over the course of the day you post whatever the mission tells you to. For example, today the mission is "Take a picture of somewhere you would be out of place." So today, users have posted pictures of everything from a sorority house and a Tupperware party to a family on a picnic and a chess tournament (that one's mine). It's another fun online game of sorts...plus if you don't have time or don't like the mission you don't have to do it :)

Well, now that half my Saturday is gone, I suppose I ought to start in on the more responsible activities I've had in mind...
