I took my camera out in a light snowstorm this past Sunday. The rest of the week involved staying cozy at home and getting ready for the Clayathon.

TWiP: More Sweaters Ahead
I’ve started knitting two more sweaters. Partially because I am crazy, and partially because it’s winter, and what better way is there to pass a chilly evening but with sticks and string, and a cozy mystery on the TV?

Just a bit of everyday life going on around here. Nothing exciting happening this week, but I’m ok with “nothing exciting” most of the time 🙂

This week is an example of what I was afraid would happen if I stopped requiring myself to take a photo a week. I have four images from Saturday, two from Thursday, and nothing else. Who knows what I was doing the rest of the week? Not me!

TWiP: Weekends are not for Sitting at the Computer
I do not want to turn on my computer on the weekends! Weekends are for visiting! And going for long drives! And breathing fresh air! And sitting on the bed watching mysteries and knitting!

You may notice that much of the imagery in this post includes the new ripple blanket I started crocheting last week. That’s because it’s January, and it’s cold, and there’s a pandemic still raging out there, so I haven’t really had anywhere to go, or anything interesting to do that could tear me away from crocheting. Though I’d be open to opportunities if they magically presented themselves.

This week I’ve made an effort to use my Canon 80D wherever possible. What I lose in convenience by not using my handy phone, I more than make up for in quality, I think. It’s not that my phone doesn’t take lovely pictures. In fact, my current phone is orders of magnitude better than the camera I was using when I started this blog. But there’s something about a DSLR photo that just looks better.

I decided to do this project when I came across a few videos from the first time I tried this, back in 2018. I only managed 3 non-consecutive months with that project, but those little films contained clips with my dad, his brother, a great-uncle, and a cat, all of whom are no longer with us. It made me realize that even though I have a huge library of photographs of the people I love, there’s something extra special about moving pictures.

I can’t properly express how much it pleases me to be ending the year on a Friday. For TWiP purposes, all weeks end on Fridays, so when the end of a week corresponds with the end of the year, it just feels so neat and tidy. How nice for my 2021 photo and video projects not to extend awkwardly into the middle of another week! I’ve learned a few things this year, photographically speaking, and will tailor my 2022 project accordingly 🙂
