People have often asked me how I can take photos every single day. Do I ever miss the deadline? Do I ever run out of things to photograph? The answer to those questions is no. I also never get bored with this either. But sometimes I need to change things up a bit.

Some days however I don’t find something all that interesting to photograph so I occasionally and actually rarely use some of the filters of PhotoShop Elements to make things a little more interesting. So today I made a funky thing from a photo of one of Allison’s ornament. The ornament spun and spun as I tried to take a shot of it with one hand using the macro setting using also the Hi ISO. So it was shot after shot just to get it in focus. Then I used a couple of filters to add a little bit to it. I know that some people don’t like these abstract photos but sometimes they are fun.

What do you think?

    I like it. And it gives me some ideas as to how to take a cat pic a day for at least a year.

    Andy Warhol cats, anyone?

      Christine,
      I’m happy that you are doing a daily photo project and specifically of your cats or cats in general. Good for you. Andy Warhol cats would be great.
