Photo A Day Challenge – January 16-31, 2014

by Laurel Regan on February 1, 2014

in Artsy-Craftsy

My first full month of daily photos for 2014 is now complete! I had lots of fun with the January Photo A Day Challenge, AND was rather tickled to find out that my photo for the January 30 prompt – Best invention ever – was picked as one of “A Dandy Dozen” on the FMS Photo A Day Facebook Group.

Made my day!

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.)

You’ve got a great eye! I thoroughly enjoyed perusing these on a slow Saturday morning. Before a conference call in a few minutes, so maybe not so slow. But a lovely way to prepare. Thanks!

You know what?? I think I WILL join you! I’ve always wanted to do a Photo A Day challenge but I always get distracted. Maybe this will help me keep focus. Great photos and a perfect reminder that you don’t have to go out of your way to get interesting photos.

This is a challenge to put to one side and think of when my life (caregiving, etc.) gets a bit less mentally hectic. I loved several of your photos and they are now on various of my Pinterest boards. My favorite (although I didn’t pin it) was “blue”.

Lovely photos. “Tiny” Made me think of “The pen is mightier than the sword, no wait, everything else.”
