I'm finding it very hard to think of a way to start this post that doesn't lament the rather speedy passing of the year and my (and most people's) inability to comprehend that we're now in October. The home straight. Every now and then I get a little flutter of excitement. Winter! Birthdays! Christmas!
And then I realise that I'm wishing away the year. I have a bad habit of doing that; of focussing on a destination and not enjoying the journey.
One thing that I'm grateful to this monthly photography challenge for is the way that it has made me appreciate each and every day for what it is. Every day I have to find a moment to take a picture, to document the details of my life that might otherwise go undocumented. That on September 6th, I bought a beautiful bunch of flowers from Whole Foods in Venice. The sunset on the 8th. Looking out over the sea of crosses at Arlington West on September 11th.
By the end of the year, I will have 366 of these moments documented. For the photographs from previous months, please click the links below:
you now // father // far away
every day // in my mail box // bright
natural // at night // something you do most weekends
black and white // hero // together
table // favourite // first thing you see
strange // in my fridge // price (very tenuous I have to say...)
underneath // man made // sometimes
up // before bedtime // three things
frame // near // love/hate
a good thing // errand // you, then

gorgeous photo a day again! it would be so much fun to make a photo book!
I know that everyone's saying it, but it is so true - i can't believe October is already here! Love your photo a day challenge, per usual. =)
Lovely photos as usual. I never really use instagram but I think I'm going to have to get involved - as you say, it's such a lovely way to document your year.
I love documenting my life this way and love seeing yours too. And yes, I cannot believe we are in October!
Looks like you had a fabulous month!! :D
I love these. I'd like to get involved with a photography challenge next year, I think it will be super inspiring.
I love your photo a day posts! Makes me feel kind of like a voyeur...but in a not so creepy way. :P
So happy to have finally found someone who is also excited about fall and winter. I like summers but winter is my favorite time of the year! Your pictures are all wonderful to look at, Kathryn!
Your photos are gorgeous, as always. And seriously, where did the time go? It'll be thanksgiving in no time, then christmas, then 2013. It freaks me out as to how fast time is moving!
Great idea for traveling! Your picture is great!
