Note: Please make sure you see the end of this post for the new way of doing things. It’s only one small change we made in November, but a change nonetheless. Thanks!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My goodness. I am late on this. And it’s been one heck of a month. Some piled up work hours and a lack of blogging overall. I really need to find a way to catch my mojo again — at least a little. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alas, better to be a bit late than just saying hell with it, no?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"This<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

So this month’s theme was supposed to be a way to have an open-ended subject that would allow you to kind of do anything you liked. Find those things that catch your eye. Maybe something gets those gears going and such. Depending where you are, the winter might be hanging on and the spring will soon (hopefully) be here and maybe that will do something. I’m looking to try and get out more.. try to find some inspiration, not only for photos, but for some writing and videos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More on that in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alas, we\u2019re here for a photo challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you all had a good month and here\u2019s also hoping for the future months to be as good or better. Be safe and healthy and here are my five for the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. No more<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It really would be nice if these guys didn’t have to be used any more this year. I’m done with winter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

2. Water<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is on some old beat-down wall in town. Not too sure what it’s for. But I often go past it on my walks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3. Hope to geocache more<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a standby for me when I am walking and I know I need a photo. I just try and figure a different way to take the photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

4. Kindness<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kindness week was celebrated in one of the schools where I work. On my way out one day, I snapped a shot of this locker — covered in positive notes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

5. Night lights<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had to work several late nights recently and this is the scene I walked out to one night. Not sure what drew me to it, but I liked the look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And there are my five for the month!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you took part in this month\u2019s challenge, make sure to link up below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And for those of you who participated, make sure you try and get to other people\u2019s blogs and comment (here, too!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s continue to grow this challenge and have a strong community. Come back and check out the others who link later on, too! NOTE:<\/strong> We have a Facebook group for those who participate in the challenge and are interested. I\u2019ll post any announcements there and hopefully it can be a place where things are discussed and some interaction etc. You can access it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

** CHALLENGE CHANGE **<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From this point forward, I am going to do the next theme at the bottom of each linkup. Also, the posting date will now be the first of each month, thus giving you the entire month to take the photos etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That means it’s a one-stop shop! Hopefully this helps out with everybody. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, below is the linkup for December. Make sure you drop your link there. The theme for March is Eight …<\/strong> Remember to come back on April 1 to link up and check out the theme for that month!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
