Project 365 {1/365}

I have wanted to participate in Project 365 for a couple of years...so this year I thought I would finally give it a shot :)
I think it will be a great way to play with my camera, and finally really start "using" it!

Probably not the best start...the house was dark, so light was not good, and I am thinking Photoshop needs to be on my *must have list*, so I can use some of the wonderful actions that are available.

Christmas cards are my favorite part of the Season
I usually leave our cards out for quite awhile...it is so fun to look through them all... and I love what my friend Kim shared about leaving them out all year and randomly praying for families...what a fantastic idea!

  4. Your shot is beautiful, Dawn!!!! I love the soft candle reflected in the mirror. Do not even worry about Photoshop...I actually just got it this summer. Picassa and picnic are good for editing too.

    I am so glad you are doing this. We need to encourage each other and help with ideas....I know it is easy to get burned out and discouraged.
