This is my 2013 New Years Resolution Blog. It consists of my Daily Lectio Divina prayer practice. You are welcome to read along, respond to the readings yourself or just take in my thoughts and prayers for the day. This is not an academic study, but a chance to read, reflect, pray and contemplate my personal relationship to scripture based loosely on the daily office of The Episcopal Church as found on the Sisters of St Clair website.

Day 29 - Hiatus
Decided to take a vacation from the blog and photographs until I get back to the city. Its too nice in Cape May with the hubs to do much more than sleep, eat, drink and sit on the beach. See you in a few days when I get back to the Challenge :)

Day 23 - Water
Today I got to photograph one of my favorite things to photograph, water!
But I didn't go to the beach, or the river, or the baptismal font. I went to my bath tub and played for about an hour and these are the best shots I got. Actually shooting a clear liquid on a white background was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Who'd've guessed.
Enjoy!

Day 21- Eyes
Today the eyes have it.
I wish I would have gotten my brows done before taking these self portrait shots, but I got some great expressions in my hubs eyes and some fun ones of the pup.
Can't wait to get back to the city tomorrow and to the beach on Monday where we will get lots of things to photograph and lots of time to relax.

Day 19 - Hands
He's got the whole world in his hands.
Today's assignment was hands, and since I've taken more pictures of my hands lately than I know what to do with- I was happy to have some special hand models today.

Day 17 and 18 - High and Low Angle Shots
Yesterday we went to prospect park in Brooklyn. I highly recommend visiting there if you are in New York City. It's designed by the same person who designed Central Park, but it is quieter, greener and there are less people. We had an awesome day. I couldn't stick to one assignment so I did both of them for yesterday and today while I was there :)
The assignment was High and Low angled shots and of course these are my favorites from the day.
These are the same stairwell at the Boathouse

Day 16- Something I love and Yesterday Redux
Today I did a photo shoot with Inders my favorite thing. I kind of hate calling him a thing, but he is between something I own and someone I love.
I also got some shots of reading and sitting on the couch with Andrew which is certainly one of my favorite things!
Lovely day.
These are the shots from the assignment yesterday - Sun Burst :) ^
