For the second day in a row, I brought my camera to work today. The weather was exceptionally co-operative, so I trekked off through a rather nice neighbourhood near my office. I got several good shots, but this one made the cut for photo of the day. The others will make an appearance in Urban Fragments, Part II this weekend!

Out for a walk, again

This is what I get when I miss the bus...
Hot pink and lime. Truly, one of my favourite colour combos. I lucked upon this on my way to Safeway this evening - I originally planned to take the bus, but I just missed it outside my office. I decided to walk instead, and I'm glad I did, because these lovely colourful balls of silk flowers were hanging outside one of my favourite florist shops. I never would have seen them if I hadn't missed my bus!

Urban Fragments, Part I
I was digging through my shots from earlier this month and came across these photos I took on my lunch break. This isn't an official Project 365 submission since they're almost two weeks old, but I wanted to share anyway.

Another multi-photo day!
Today is another multi-photo day! I needed to get some more stuff done for an assignment, so I accompanied my husband to his hair appointment (despite feeling like a truck hit me today... ugh!), which happened to be close to a very fascinating inner-city neighbourhood. I wandered around with my camera for an hour while he was busy, and I quite enjoyed myself.
Photos 3 & 4 also pertain to another class assignment: "blue". Glad to have knocked out a couple for that one that I really like!

The Tower
My assignment for class next week is a tough one: shoot the Calgary Tower. Simple enough? Of course not. I need to shoot it in an "interesting and innovative" manner. Oy. Today's Project 365 is a set of six that I shot this afternoon. I am thinking I might need to go back, I'm not totally thrilled with all of them.

Back on campus
Tonight I was short on both time and inspiration. It was the first night of a new class for me, which meant leaving the house very early in the morning for work, and not coming home until after class was over (at 9:30pm!). I took my camera with me so I wouldn't miss a day of my Project 365!
