Photogrl57 aka Sherrie posted a challenge..this is what she said.
"Not sure how long this will last but I decided to challenge myself and make at least one photo everyday this year of something I normally wouldn't shoot.
Feel free to post yours if you are up to the challenge"
Sherrie thank you for starting this challenge and helping me with my photo shop phobia.
Sherrie continued to start the challenge with a new subject and photo a day until late July.
What happened next was pretty neat. You see, she started something that could not be stopped .thats how good things are sometimes they just cannot be stopped. Some changes were made responsibilities distributed and the Challenge went on with multiple hosts, many volunteer hosts, and many contributors .It has been a grand and fun and learning time.
A special thanks to GG who has taken my black and white calendar of hosts and subjects and made it beautiful and fabulous and postable ( I couldnt even do that) and reminds us daily of how much there is to learn. LAYERS GG LAYERS.
A special Thanks to Janice for her kind and warm ways, for always having something nice to say, for trying to make sure that all images and new contributors have been acknowledged and for scrambling around to help others and also to host and post when her computer took a, well you know.
Thing is some of us have been on since jan 12 and have developed crazy cyber relationships. Honest I dont know how it just happened and it is. There has been talk about a get together and .drum roll .It looks as if we have a host for that too.
A great big thanks to SHER in Colorado who is in the middle of the US. She has what it takes to organize a gig. Now this is some serious stuff and time is necessary to make it work. We are looking at the end of June for a gathering in Denver.
We can plan a meal together, a shoot together, provide advise on how to get there and where to stay and other activities that may be of interest to those who wish to participate. Thing is we need to know who is really serious and who is just talking well you know what. If you have a serious interest in a gathering of this kind make it known to me or SHER .for now we will be working on it together.
As already mentioned .sometimes things just change and today I would like to tell you of some impending changes. Just two: Many of you have indicated, a desire to continue with daily challenges. My personal challenge is coming to an end with the December 2012 Calendar although I might be available to play and maybe even host a day, the feat of organizing it all is not on my list of things to do for 2013 BUT WAIT GUESS WHAT? .WE HAVE A VOLUNTEER FOR THAT TOO
Thank you ANNETTE for all the days you have hosted, the excellent lessons you have provided and now for graciously volunteering to keep the Challenge going The second thing is that with me goes RED .because I SAW SOMETHING RED and RED IS RED. Annette will have to come up with her own wild card RED IS MINE.
Which leads me by way of a million miles to: WHY NOT BLUE?
Blue is primary just like red....show me something blue....

I guess I will have to find something BLUE to add as I don't have much with this color. That is wonderful news that the challenge will keep going. Depending on how things go for me withing the next 2 months, I might be able to do another day but I will see what comes up for me first. Thank You Annette for keeping the challenge alive.

Thank you Nancy for all that you have done for the challenge of 2012.
Yes, absolutely yes, I am definitely serious about a meeting and colorado is do-able for me!!!!!!!! YAY
I have a big day planned to go to a new park with my friend Patty tomorrow, surely there will be some blue outside and I sure hope the sky will be blue instead of gray as it was today. So I will be here but it will be in the evening.
As for the 2013 challenge. I don't think I will host on a regular basis but I will participate. And maybe I will fill in on days when someone else has an emergency or something unexpected come up.
Fabulous photos here! I like them and blue!!!

Yep...babies are little hug magnets! A lot of mamas take their newborns out in public nowadays...much earlier that I would. I always want to touch their little cheeks or hug on them, but the mommies frown at me ..so I don't. lol
