Day 25 of my photo a day project is dedicated to my father and my family ancestry from Scotland.  In a few days I will post a tribute to my mother and my family ancestry from England. 🙂 Also have a few other ideas I want to try over the next few days. 🙂

340 days to go! Hopefully I can stay inspired!

So far 2014 has been a delight, 11 days in and there has been no dramas or accidents and I have managed to take heaps of photos.  It feels like 2014 is going to be a promising year.

My main goal or project for 2014 is to take a photograph for everyday of the year. So far I have managed to complete each day with ease, I hope the rest of the year goes as well and I can keep a good variety.

I hope everyone has a pleasant 2014.
