52 WEek Project 2012 - Week 14

FInally uploaded the hundreds of photos from Alaska. My how I missed it. It was a whirlwind trip and it was exhausting but totally worth it. For the people, the company and of course, picture opportunities like these.

Hard to choose, but this is a winner:

Moon Over Mountain Through Trees

Taken from the cabin in Girdwood, about 45 minutes south of Anchorage. The moon had just come over the mountain.

Tons of runners up can be found on my flickr photostream.

52 Week Project 2012 - Week 13

It was a busy week for me so slim pickings on the photos this time round. My choices were from an afternoon at the Zoo with a co-worker and Saturday night drinks with colleague/friends.

This one is the winner - our table decorations at Sasha's Wine Bar:

Small Hiatus

I haven't forgotten but I'm about to leave town for a few days! By the time I get back, I'll have two week's worth (last week and this week) photos to post. I DID take photos this week but I'm not sure what they are and I won't find out until I get back.

See you soon!

52 Week Project 2012 - Week 12

I can't believe we're a) 12 weeks into 2012 and that I've kept this project up for the 12 weeks... these 12 weeks have been a little crazy for me at work. I've been averaging 50-60 hours per week at work. But photography for me is still the best therapy.

Spring has really sprung as of late - every fruit-bearing tree is flowering and flowering beautifully - plus we've had several rain showers.

It was really tough to decide which one to pick - the rest can be found here.

The pick of the week:

Spring has sprung in St. Louis - and my pictures show it. I think the "winner" for this week was taken in my parents backyard:

52 Week Project 2012 - Week 10

It has been a busy month at work; but we had some performers come into work who were a delight to work with. During the sound check on the last day, they rocked it out and I took some pictures before we got all serious and ready to perform folk music for children.

I took several shots - both of the performers and their instruments. This is my favorite, which is why it's here:

Guitar

Runner up - Dogwood bloom on Connecticut Ave:

52 Week Project 2012 - Weeks 9

We are having an unexplicably warm winter... and therefore... spring has sprung. Now that doesn't mean we aren't going to get snow again - especially when it is 70° one day and 30° the next. However, I'm a firm believer that these little sprouts are going to stay.

I went to the Botanical Gardens on Thursday before coming into work. Not much was in bloom, but what was, was gorgeous. I can't wait until spring is here again and the Botanical Gardens are a-bloom.

Enjoy this sunlit wonder:
