So we’re midway through the first month of 2014. Did you make any New Year’s resolutions? How are you doing with them? While I didn’t make any actual resolutions, I do have a few things that are near and dear to my heart which I am hoping to accomplish this year – and I’m getting a good start to one of my creativity-related goals: completing January’s Photo A Day Challenge.
I’ve been sharing my photos on Instagram, Twitter, Flickr, and the FMS Photo A Day group on Facebook, but thought I’d also periodically do a round-up of my photos here on Alphabet Salad for the benefit of my readers who aren’t active on any of these platforms.
Hope you enjoy!
(Clicking on any of the photos below will take you to my Flickr account… and, depending on your browser, hovering over them will give you – in some cases – an explanation as to how I interpreted the prompt.)

Great photos Laurel. I’ve always wanted to do one of those photo challenges but I think for the moment, I’m challenged out.

Thank you very much! I know what you mean – January in particular can be rather overwhelming. But the photo a day challenge starts up again at the beginning of every month, so there’s always the option of jumping in when things are a little quieter!

Beautiful! One of my goals for “eventually” is to become a better photographer. Looks like I have a long way to go yet!

Thank you! I’m having great fun practicing iPhoneography… whether or not I’m getting any better, I don’t know, but I’m enjoying myself along the way! 🙂

Beautiful photos! I can’t believe I haven’t seen any of them pop up on the facebook page. Of course there are 12,000 people in the group…
I love the eggs and hello kitty earrings.

I love your kitty in black and white! I admire you for taking on the challenge. I’ve been planning on giving it a try for the last few years, but have been so busy. I can’t wait to see more!

I liked a lot of these – well done. I pinned several of these- the cat photo was a favorite, as was the Band Aid box photo. My favorite was the Windsor – I like that kind of retro look.
