I’m carrying on with the Photo A Day challenge this year. I found it really good when I started taking part late in 2012 – I started looking at things a bit differently, stopping to notice details around me more, and I’m hoping my photography is improving as well as a result. 
Here’s the first week of 2013 in photos….
January 1. Today
Steve taking a photo of our cat Roxy playing on the stairs.
January 2. Something new
Made a new toy for the Pieces of Us Project, using a pattern that I hadn’t tried before.
January 3. Heart
Handmade ceramic hearts hanging above the bathroom mirror. I got these at a craft stall at the Nelson markets a couple of years ago – I think the young son of the stall owner made them. I love that they’re wonky and uneven, the imperfection appeals to me a lot.
January 4. The view from here
Looking back along the path we took for an early evening walk.
January 5. Movement
Baby feet discovering movement (in a Jolly Jumper).
January 6. Mine
Vintage salt and pepper shaker set, which was a house warming gift from my friend Jo.
January 7. Street
The corner of Riddiford and Rintoul Streets, Newtown, Wellington.
I love your photos so I’m glad you are continuing to share them in 2013 too!
Thanks Donna! I’m really enjoying the photo challenges – it’s so much fun to go hunting for what to take for the day’s challenge!
Spookily, I was parked just there on the corner of Riddiford and Rontoul yesterday, just for a few minutes, while picking up a lamp from Hand in Hand. It was more outside the florist, but how funny! And can we see the pic Steve took of the cat as well?
Haha, clearly it was a popular corner that day!
I’ll get the photo from Steve and put it in the next Photo a Day post for you.
Lovely pics. Just went to the January Photo A Day page and I think I’m going to jump in too. Thanks for the link and the beauty.
Thank you for the lovely compliment!
I just saw your first Photo a Day post – great pic!
