2011 the daily post - photo journal
I've named this gallery "The Daily Post" but I can't promise that I will post every day. This gallery is more of a journal of what's going on in my little section of this world we all share. Some days the photo may be better than the commentary and others, the commentary is much better than the photo. It's just a way to combine two of my favorite things, photography and speaking my mind. Here's to 2011! Kris :D

01.11.11 = Color Coded and Organized
I’m feeling so much better today than yesterday. Sometimes the overwhelming feeling of just beginning the project is so much worse than actually doing it. Not much time to write and reflect today, I still have several projects to tackle. Oh, and Mom, no, you’re right, that was NOT a photo of your sewing drawer. (Or mine) Today’s photo is a sample of my Mother’s sewing drawer. ALL her thread is color coded and always organized.

What a struggle this morning. So much on my mind and I can’t seem focus on anything. It seems that I just can’t get the body and mind to work together today. I really can’t stand days like today when I feel disorganized and unproductive. <br />

on January 22, 2011I really like the setup and focus on this. Sounds like the way my mother used to have her sewing drawer.

on January 11, 2011This is really nicely done. I like the simple composition and the shallow depth of field. I actually came across some spools of thread in a drawer last night and was thinking of arranging some photos with them, so I might post something in this genre in the near future.

on January 11, 2011I love the fact that you've taken something so simple with such clarity and turned it into beautiful. (Plus I'm really drawn to the color pink).
