I remeber this Picture A Day (PAD) as a 'hot topic' some months ago- I
personally failed miserably at even a PAW (Picture A Week)... However, I'm
game enough to put up a New Year's Eve resolution to produce a PAW.
I've been working ("working"?) on a photograph/poetry book for three years-
and this would be an excellent vehicle to perhaps get it within completion.
A Photograph and Accompanying Poem a Week (PAPW)!
Anyone else wish to state before the Forum their intentions of a PAD or
PAW?! C'mom, what're you....chicken?!?
:)
Happy New Year to all, even if you use Nikons!
