Memories, Dreams and Reflections 2010

Photo maven Ashley Sisk at Ramblings and Photos is hosting an awesome linky this month. Memories, Dreams and Reflections 2010 is a fun way to relive this year. Head over and join the fun!

1. Me! - picture of yourself (you don't have to show your face). What are you most proud of accomplishing in 2010? I'm proud that I've made it to 2011, but it makes me feel really old! Shot 10-10-10

 

 
2. I Love You- picture of your husband, boyfriend, children, pets, etc. We went to New Orleans and there were so many beautiful photo ops! Shot 11-21-10

3. Still Laughing- a moment you're still laughing about now... tell us a story. This is the first in a brief nose-plant series. Chowder was permanently temporarily unable to keep his feet under him while running, so he ended up somersaulting in the field. Of course, he is way to clumsy dignified for such things to happen now. *cough* Shot 2-21-10

4. Winter Wonderland - a picture that reflects Winter. Driving along the highway to my parents house, I had to pull over and take this shot. The landscape seemed unearthly, and I loved how you could barely make out the horizon. Shot 12-29-10

5. Birthday - share a birthday picture (your own or someone you love). 

6. Friends - a picture with friends (this could be your friends or your children with their friends). It was hard to get an in-focus shot of this whirlwind of play! Shot 11-14-10

7. I Was Inspired... - could be a picture of your inspiration (person or thing), or inspired by... Mostly I was inspired to get out of the car, but at least is offered a unique view! Shot 12-28-10

8. Spring Fever - a picture that reflects Spring. Shot 4-14-10

9. Travel or Vacation - a picture taken on vacationor on a recent travel experience, OR of a place you'd like to travel. Our last big vacation was to Europe, including Venice, and oh what an amazing trip it was:). Shot 5-14-10

10. Summer Days - a picture that reflects Summer. Shot 7-11-10

11. A Day In My Life - a picture of a typical day in your life.  A lovely cappuccino made by Mr. Pony and a good book- my perfect morning! Shot 12-1-10

12. All Smiles - a picture that makes you smile or of smiling faces. At least Chowder is smiling! Shot 2-3-10

13. Autumn Harvest - a picture that reflects Autumn/Fall. shot 10-14-10

14. Family - a picture of your family or a picture that represents family for you. I never remember to have my camera out while with my people family, so the closest thing is this shot of Copper. This year we'll have been together 13 years, or 1/2 my life. Pony!

15. Celebrate! - a picture that reflects a celebration. We celebrated our first anniversary slightly early- that way we got to celebrate in Paris! Shot 5-26-10

16. Let's Do It Again... - a picture of something you'd like to do again soon. I LIVE LOVE to travel. This time last year I was planning a trip to Europe. While something that extravagant is not in the cards for 2011, I would love to take a trip somewhere amazing again soon! Shot 10-28-10

17. I Miss You - a picture of someone or something you really miss. I don't really seem to take photos of human family. However, these felines are family from when I was in high school, and I do miss cuddling with them on many frigid, Frozen-North nights.

18. Beautiful - a picture of someone or something you find beautiful. The man I love, doing what he loves {cooking}, adding a beautiful plethora of food to our lives. Shot 12-16-10

19. Dress Up - this might be a picture from Halloween or not...but someone who is all dressed up! Ok, so this isn't a person, but what is more dressed up than the Eiffel Tower when she glitters?

20. Macro - share your favorite macro image.   I <3 Macro!

21. Holidays - a picture from the Holiday of your choice. Shot 12-31-10

22. My Favorite - share your favorite picture or memory from 2010. We added a puppy to our family, and even though we had to nurse him through parvo, he was a family member from day 1. This was taken the day we signed the paperwork to adopt him. Shot 1-16-10 (from a camera phone- don't judge!)

23. Don't Ever Change - something you love about yourself, someone, or something that you never want to change.  Lyric is big, a bit goofy and 100% a character. Taken 8-5-10

24. Just Because...So There! - share any picture(s) that you really want to share, but doesn't fit in any other category.  Straight from the horse's mouth. Shot 5-24-10

 25. Hopes and Dreams - share what you hope to come or dream for 2011. Feel free to share an image of your choice. I hope to live a happy and enjoyable life. I hope to learn more about photography and possibly expand my skills into some photo-editing (right now all I do is SOOC) and start riding my {hopefully soon-to-be-healed pony} again, and I hope to live more of a carpe diem lifestyle. Huzzah 2011!!

 Thanks to all who stopped by to share my photographic journey through 2010! Good luck in 2011!!
