Lets see how you started your photographic journey of the new year.

Here's mine.

No shots yet. I am not brave enough to face the extreme cold.

Great shot.

Thank you.

A multipurpose photo: I've also used it in Shooting the Alphabet and
52 Week Photography Project 2018, Week 1: Looking Ahead

Black ant fishing fly that I tied a number of years ago.

Well darn! I deleted my first. Didn't know you were gonna do this thread :biglaugh:

Actually, this is something like #8, but they are all of the same thing. It just took me a while to get the triggers set properly.

Not sure I want to post this after that beauty shot of yours. Went on a little drive today and found this guy about 10min from my house and happened to be my first shot of the new year.

And I hope we are lucky tomorrow after the great few days you have been having.

I would have posted a snowy on an outhouse roof if I had seen one!

All the shots of Snowys I have, and they are few, are all on antennae's. A Snowy on an outhouse would be a nice change. I'm going out with zombiesniper tomorrow but with all the great shots he's had over the last few days I hope his luck isn't running out.

I woulda taken a better first shot if I'd known!!

Destin · Jan 1, 2018

Haven’t taken a single photo yet. Y’all are making me look bad.

Derrel · Jan 1, 2018

Oh my gosh, I have not taken a single photo since yesterday's sunset shots at 4:50 PM. That means I have not snapped a single photo for exactly 12 minutes shy of a full 24 hours! So, not yet one single photo on this first day of January, 2018!

We'll find something.

Besides the shots I took arguing with my light meter (which I’m not counting) It was this one when I was practicing my black on black background lighting. As you can see my subject was quite enthusiastic about posing.
