Week 1

Some of you may have heard of a "Project 365".  Where a person posts a picture every day for a year.  Sometimes they have a theme, sometimes it is random.  I have seen these started many times.  however, I have never seen one finished.  I've thought it sounded kind of fun and would get me out taking pictures more.  Problem is, I fear I would be like all the ones I have seen started before.  So I have decided to do a Project 52.  One a week.  To decide what to post I used a Random word generator, an idea I got from another blog, Only 365 Words.  Sometimes I'll use a new photo, sometimes one from the archives.

So this week's word is Comparing-
1. To consider or describe as similar, equal, or analogous; liken.
2. To examine in order to note the similarities or differences of.
My salt and pepper grinders.  I love the contrast of the two, especially in black and white.
Next week: Fake (I have to add this here because I want to start thinking about next weeks photo, but have to lock myself in so I don't change it if I can't come up with something :) )
