Every now and then there are surprises that show up while you're out. Chaosmanor and I, while on our road trip last month, stumbled upon a cache at night. Now, I don't do much night caching and we weren't really going to do any night caching on this trip, but we were on our way back to our hotel room and I spotted this cache just off the freeway, so we thought we'd attempt it.
Once we got there, we discovered this particular cache was a virtual cache. After we got the requirements for the cache, I went back to the van to get the camera to get some shots of this statue. Had I had my tripod, I might have been tempted to try some long exposures, but I figured some flash shots would work this time.
This leads me to another topic, that of the 365 project. Chaosmanor showed this to me, so I thought I'd look into this as well. I'm going to try and do a literal 365 day project, starting on January 1st, 2011 and work through the year. I probably won't get anything really earth shattering on some days, maybe even just the top of my foot or something along that line, but I do take a lot of photos and I think I'd like to try something like this. I keep seeing the 12 on 12 projects, taking 12 photos on the 12th, but for some reason, I always seem to forget about the day until after the fact. Perhaps with this, since I know I'll need to take at least one photo each day, I'll persevere. We shall see.
