*Lee-Anne*'s photostream

Just before I go, I wanted to share my very favourite photo of the year. Not taken by me, but taken of me by my sister at her wedding.

Most fun night of the year.

for now.

We're off for a month break; flying out very early tomorrow morning.

I've been sporatic (at best) with my visits here, but even when I'm absent or quiet, I never fail to be thankful for the inspiration and connection with kindred spirits I find here on flickr.

Happy Holidays to all ~ may you find in this season rest, replenishment and renewal, or whatever it is you desire.

My Project 365 has been a dismal and abject failure this year. But, as Lauren Cooper might say, "Does this face look bovvered?"

For me, it's never been about the strict adherence to the rules as much as the reminder to try to get the camera in my hands at least once a day. To pay attention to the little things. To attempt to capture the light and shadows as the day moves through me. And so, in that way, it's always a success, even if it only works out to a photo a week.

Some of my favourites are on this photoblog as a memory of 2011. It's been quite a year so far.

From Nan's recipe, and made by Erin, her great grand-daughter

I love the way recipes can provide continuity in life.
