Birdies, anyone?

The bulk of my January 31 photographs were shot in 2013–set my camera on a tripod early in the day and snapped merrily away whenever the fancy struck me. Got some good photographs, mostly of birds but a few of a squirrel.

One of the Better Porches Around Here, Revisited

A week ago I claimed January 23 as the date I’ve taken the fewest photographs, but that was before I filtered out the eBay product pictures. With those gone, January 30’s easily my least-photographed date, with only 19 images. Since they’re in three different years, they were taken in very skimpy photo sessions.

Roxand Center Schoolhouse

While I’ve taken a handful of pix in other years, the bulk of the January 24 pix date from the 2012 daily photo project. I was clearly bored; I tried a little bit of everything. There’s a pic taken at my dentist’s. Another couple came from where I ate breakfast, and I caught some more on my way home. Then I took random images around the house. There’s even a rubber ducky photo. And a cat, of course. Eventually I posted one of ’em–of a bird feeder, which I actually like.

Fence, with Barn

There has to be a date when I’m least likely to take photographs–and that date’s January 23. In fact, it appears that the only reason I take pix on this date is photo-a-day projects. I’ll be taking a few more today.

Living Room w/ Debbie

I’m not much of a photographer on January 22. I get the camera out most years, but I mostly shoot boring stuff. Poorly.
