In mid-2022, I took the plunge and participated in a 100-day project. I wanted to hone my photography skills and expand my skills in Photoshop, playing with images. I took many new photos on my walks and grabbed some from my vault of thousands (we all seem to have thousands now that we have smart phones.) I chose favorite quotes for each of the photos.
A hundred days is A LOT! But looking back, there are only a very few I would tweak; I’m happy with the bulk of them, I learned a lot, it was (mostly) fun, and I am proud to actually complete a project.
Each individual photo can be viewed and enlarged on my Instagram account. I hope you find some photos and/or quotes that speak to you. I’ve collected a few of my personal favorites for the shop, because aren’t postcards awfully nice to send and receive?
For those of you who followed along with me through the project…I do so thank you!
