DAY ONE

The New Year Cloud Cover_, originally uploaded by rprocida01.

So after seeing several other similar blogs, I am going to attempt to shoot at least one cool photo a day for this experiment. Then add my little twist at the end of the year and make a mosaic of all of them into the final Photo. Also an attempt to sharpen those photo skills.

This first photo was an attempt to capture how awesome the weather was on the first day of the new year. I only had my little sd780 on me when I shot this because I was taking Logan to the park. But thought it expressed the feeling of a spring day in the middle of winter. Hope you like it and there will be many more to come, keep watch.
