Anyway, I want to smoosh the whole project into 2010. So I'm already 4 weeks behind. Or 5 if you want to count that first Friday. Which I do. Soooooooo...
Here are the first 5 photos of Project 52, Photo Friday! Ready, set, go....
Oh wait! Rules! Rules, rules, rules. First, if my photos suck, I can and will PhotoShop them. This is as much to hone my PhotoShopping skills as my photography skills. Second, if I get behind, I can smoosh multiple photos into one Friday (like today). OK, I think those are all the rules.
Oh and also, I'd like to say that my inspiration (high praise indeed after this flawlessly crafted introductory post.... Sorry, Dani!) is DaniGirl of the FABULOUS blog Postcards from the Mothership. Her photos throughout the last year have been SUCH great fun to look at, and now she's found that she can't stop at 365, and has gone on to re-name her project "Project 1000". She just keeps going and going. Which is what this introduction is doing. Now, on to the photos!
Wait! I have to say "also inspired by"... ALVN, the amazing Amy from WhisperWood Cottage and Junkologie blogs. (And also a contributor on JunkMARKET Style!) Amy is a person who has that "eye" for photography, and SHOULD BE A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER.
OK. It's like I'm at the Academy Awards and the orchestra starts playing because my speech is running over....
So now... the photos!
Wild Turkeys in the Lane, Winter
I took this out my car window on my iPhone. It was somewhat blurry, and had the frame of the car window in it. But when I cropped it and put the Fresco effect on... I thought it was somewhat impressionistic! (Just call me Renoir!)
Crabapple tree in hoarfrost
Same deal - blurry iPhone pic with PhotoShopped effect - Manet, n'est-ce pas?
Hip-hop birdie
Sweet little birdie tracks by our front door one morning....
Happiness and high-fives
Tyler is thrilled with the birthday present Lauren gave him. Any shot with them not fighting is golden...!
Corgi with snowflakes
Our Coco girl loves the snow!
And there you have it - Project 52, up and running!

Yay! Lookit you go!! I love your first pix, especially the birdy footprints! Fun with the PS filters, too! Can't wait to see the rest of what you find. (And thanks for the sweet words and linky love!)
They're beautiful Kim. I'd like to get in on the action. Same reasons--better my photography and my PS skills!
Susan
Thanks Dani and Susan! It's fun, and with encouragement like that, I know I'll keep going. (Still glad I didn't go for Proj. 365 though...!)
:-)
Kim
