Back to Work!

The week between Christmas and New Years is an odd time.  Nothing much gets done, almost all of our suppliers are closed, most the staff takes vacation, but we keep making television!  Nice looking day outside, sunny and 41.
A little disgusted with the Explore My KC photo contest.  On the challenges there is one of the photographers that is having her friends "stuff the ballot boxes" evidently by "skipping" and voting only for her photos, whether or not they are better or even whether or not they fit the challenge category!  Kinda takes the fun out of it.  Pulled my photos from the challenges, she can go ahead and "win" them.  I guess the $15 is more important to some people than enjoying the contest and competing fairly.  OK, enough of that.
I don't normally carry my camera everywhere.  I usually decide to go shoot some photos, grab the camera bag and go, but now I'm trying to get in the habit of having it within reach all the time.  It paid off couple of weeks ago.  I was going to lunch and saw alot of smoke in the distance.  Went and had a look and got a couple of good photos and it was different from what I normally shoot.  Here is one of them (Abandoned Horace Mann Elementary School, 39th and Garfield).
That is also what I hope the 365 will help me do.  Shoot different types of subjects and make me look around for new ideas.  We'll see.......
OK, everyone have a good day and I will let you know when the new website is completely up and running.

  1. That sucks about the Explore My KC contest. I enjoyed the photos and voting. At least I can still see them on your blog though!
