Today's challenge: "Make a photo of a tool today. Screwdriver. Pliers. Computer. What's the tool you find most important on a daily basis?"

Well, it may not be the tool I find most important on a daily basis.....but I so wish I could still carry it with me on an airplane!

Today's challenge: "Make a low key photo today with lots of dark areas. You might need to use exposure compensation to make it work."

Well - maybe too much dark area. I thought the kitchen shutters would provide a good subject for today's challenge.

Okay - I think I've been on vacation from the 365 project long enough! So I'm back in it as of today!

Today's challenge: "Today's number is 5. Make a photo that illustrates the number in some way, either literally or abstractly. "

I moved offices at school, and until I cleaned the phone last week, you probably couldn't have read the 5 on this button. Clorox is a great thing.

Today's challenge: "Visit a park today--national, amusement, playground--and make a photo of something that catches your eye."

While up in Dillon for BBQ at the Summit, we took a little walk down to the reservoir. It was a gorgeous day in Summit County!

As it was laundry day, captured this when doing bed linens.

The lake and clouds will surely be effected by the severe weather that is being predicted for this afternoon.

I pass by these every morning on my walk.

Today's challenge: "Beauty is all around us. Make a photo of some naturally occurring beauty in your area today."

The temperature was in the high 90s again today, and a wildfire is burning on the west side of town (C-470 & Morrison Road) - and the late afternoon thunderstorms are rolling in.
