P365 Wrapup

I did it. I took at least one photo every day for a year. I'm not sure it was really beneficial at this stage in my life as I am so busy with other things like a full time job, a 10-year-old son and his activities, taking care of a home, etc. I don't know that I would attempt something like this again as it really seemed to just turn into a chore - just one more thing I had to do every day. I am working on getting my last two months of photos edited and posted, but it may take a while as I return to work tomorrow.

I have decided to do an informal P52, but I may or may not complete it. I won't lose any sleep over either way. My first challenge for the P52 is a self-portrait. Really don't like being in the frame, but I'll try to come up with something and I will use this blog to post my P52 photos so stay tuned!
