Project 52 Week 52: 2012 Finale

After a year’s commitment to posting a photo per week (many weeks I couldn’t help but post more), here is my final photo. Happy New Year! See you on the flip side … the photography will continue.

A fountain kept on in the winter creates a pretty cool effect, especially in the snow.

Project 52 Weeks 50 & 51: A Very Belated Happy Holidays

Well, after spending all Christmas day in bed with the stomach flu and another day recovering, I’m almost back to normal. Luckily I still got to partake in some of the family celebrations before getting sick. Since I’m a few days behind posting last week’s photo, and no one wants to see Christmas photos a week later, you get a two-for-one today.

A family celebration: a little chaos, a little exhaustion, and a lot of love.
