One year and 154 images later, I have to say that this little photography project has come to a close.
I sincerely thank everyone who has taken the time to follow along with my adventures and experiences this past year. This year has been many, many things for me... not the least of which is the greatest opportunity for me to stretch my photographic muscles and push myself artistically and technically as an amateur photographer. I have learned much that will stick with me and influence my photographic progress in the future, and I am thankful to have a visual record of what I believe to be one of the most important and formative years of my entire life, photographically and otherwise.
Take it easy, everyone, and may God bless you.
