First day for 12 of 12

12jan09-11th-avenue I carried my camera around today snapping pictures for my first 12 of 12 ("twelve pictures of your life - the twelfth of each month"). This photo captures a view I enjoy on weekday mornings as I walk through the pedway between the Bank of Montreal and the Cornwall Centre on the way to my office. I like this picture and I'm glad to have it. See, that's one of the things I love about projects like this -- taking photos I wouldn't have taken otherwise.

***
Today I'm thankful for:

  • my camera
  • the nice walk between my bus stop and office
  • end-of-season clearance prices (both knees were shot in Sophia's ski pants and I was able to buy her a new pair today for only $10!)

  • To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
