Bicentennial Tower

Just a few practice shots of Erie's Bicentennial Tower at sunset. CC is always welcome!

I used a lomo-type processing on this.

To Do...

I'm a firm believer that telling others about our plans breeds accountability. So here are a few things that are on my to-do list this year. Not in order of importance:

1. Take a picture EVERY DAY
2. Take a picture of myself at least once a week
3. Quit smoking...AGAIN
4. Learn more about my camera. (I still leave it on Auto when I can't figure out how to get the shot I want. Thank God for digital or I sure would be wasting a lot of film.)
5. Participate. In POTD, in a local photography group, in LIFE.
