2012 Photo Challenge: Week 1

ByKristen Koster

As you may know I got a new digital SLR camera for my birthday last year. I never “properly” learned to use all the features on the one I got for high school graduation and always relied on luck and instinct.

I’ve made it a goal this year (along with two other members of my accountability group) to do a 365 Photo Challenge. How did I let them talk me into this on a Leap year? So far, so good though.

What you see below are links to my flickr set for the photos I’ll use for this challenge. Click on any photo below to go to flickr and then you can navigate through the set with the “Previous” and “Next” arrows at the top.

A case of the megrims

ByKristen Koster

To have a case of the megrims was to have a headache. Often from the descriptions in diaries, these may have been migraine attacks or at the very least serious tension headaches. Darkened rooms, an absence of sound, relief brought on by a cool, damp cloth on one’s forehead or the back of one’s neck…

Back from the Void

ByKristen Koster

The online game that I played had a thing where if you didn’t send in any commands for a long enough period, it would idle you out. Your character was sent to a special room named “The Void”. Before you hit a second time-out point, your next command would put you back into playing mode…

Ruts Suck

ByKristen Koster

I think my parents messed up when I was born. My middle name should have been ‘procrastination’ instead of what they wrote down on the form at the hospital. Unfortunately, even knowing that the longer something is put off the harder it becomes to start doesn’t seem to prevent me from falling into those same…
