Limping toward the finish line...
Day 334
December 3: I swear it's NOT made in Heaven.
This stuff sucked -- but it came in a cool bottle...
Day 335
December 4: Say hello to Maddie. I was her favorite target at the neighborhood Christmas party (I was also a wise man in the live nativity :).
But Maddie didn't want to throw snowballs at me -- she wanted to throw snow boulders at me.
And she did...
Day 336
December 5: A couple of Christmas ornaments.
(And a couple of inadvertent self portraits)
Day 337
December 6: Kinda says it all, doesn't it?
Day 338
December 7: I love Christmas lights.
(maybe not to the extent of, say, Clark Griswold...)
I love turning off all the other lights, and basking beneath the soft warm glow of the Christmas tree.
Day 339
December 8: Dawn + rolled down window + camera + 50 mph = this picture.
Day 340
December 9: "Fun" at the beginning band concert.
Day 341
December 10: Magi...as interpreted by Jim Shore.
Day 342
December 11: Eventually I may photograph every decoration in the living room....
Day 343
December 12: This Sunday afternoon, I was really feeling down. I felt like I hadn't taken a good picture in -- well, it felt like months. So, I determined to get in my car and drive, until something caught my eye.
On my way up the canyon, these gnarly old trees were everywhere.
It's hard to explain to someone else, and I don't know how it is for other photographers, but I feel that everything -- every time, everyplace, every moment -- has a picture locked inside of it.
Like a soul.
I don't always know what I'm going to find, but I always know when I've found it.
I took a hundred pictures of this scene, and eventually, I found it's soul.
Day 344
December 13: Have I ever told you how much I love my son?
Spending the evening with Matthew at the Jazz game, just the two of us (and 18,000 other fans), was a fantastic night.
Day 345
December 14: Day number 345.
Actually, let's call it what it really is: Day 710
I am so ready to be done with this little project.
Day 346
December 15: What it's all about.
Day 347
December 16: Happy Holidays, from all the people I work with.
I wasn't in the picture.
I was in the middle of the road.
Two more weeks.....

Did ever one bail on you or what? :-)
Love the part about..."I finally found it's soul...."
And what a soul it is.
Wow. That really was a snow boulder. Scary!
Chris! So great to see you again. I love your light picture and the gnarly trees : ) All of them are sensational! As per usual! Wishing you the happiest of Christmas seasons.
Oh, It's me Becky. I am still in as Lola from when I did our communal Global post.
Two more weeks! Can you believe you're almost there?
Can't believe you didn't make it in the work shot.
And, I'm glad you are getting the decorations. It's so cool to see other people's way of decorating for the holidays.
I can't believe you've made it through 2 years. One year was hard enough. I'm going to do Fifty-two Fridays next year. One picture a week will be much easier. I do like that I have a photo journal for the year. It was hard and tedious--but very rewarding. Thanks for hanging out to the end. TWO MORE WEEKS!!!!
I love the accidental self-portraits! You've given me an idea.....
Love the tree on Day 343 :)
day 336- fantastic reflection/portrait! Merry Christmas!
Ready to be done? What? You aren't doing this again next year? Merry Christmas, Chris!
Isn't that what you were saying LAST YEAR, and then you announced you were doing it again?!? :) hahaha
I've got bets going....
You did find the soul in picture 343. Gorgeous!
And 340 is probably my favorite of the batch.
I love this time of year, so it is fun to see so many festive photos.
Have a great Christmas!
Chris, will you let Cecily know I can still read all her posts in my google reader. Maybe if she has a friend that subscribed to her blog with google reader she could email them to herself.
