getting ready



Today I spent some time organizing some materials for a mini-scrapbook that will document one week of our April. Ali Edwards has issued a scrapbook challenge of sorts to spend a week recording daily life. Taking some time to really concentrate on collecting a series of photos really appeals to me. I think it will be a good push for my photography. It will make take more indoor/low light shots that I often avoid. It will encourage me to take the camera on our walks to and from school and challenge me to photograph things that I feel shy about (like Andrew's teacher!). The week she marked is April 19th - 25th and I'll be ready.

I've been looking at that, I love the idea but need to know I'll commit to doing it! Looking forward to seeing your photos/album.

I did it a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it. Keeping it simple is definitley the key.
