T-Minus 165 Photos - A little look back.

I just recently posted my 250th photo (although I know I should be near my 300th, but that's life - I'm catching up tho!), and I have to say, its been a pretty crazy 250 photos so far.  I'm heading into the "final stretch" of this project and I'm pretty confident that I'm going to be doing it again.  Just because I'm analytical-type personality and I love numbers, here are some neat little stat's since I've started. 

600+ Twitter posts
6,300+ Blog Views from all over the world
11,000+ AntTree.org website views
20,000+! Unique Flickr views

I'm pretty darn happy with those numbers.  It means there are at least a few folks out there who are actually looking at my photos and reading my internet blather!  Woo!  Go blather! 

Anyway, thanks everyone and I hope you enjoy the remainder of this project!

Photo 365 - Day 127 (Circus Mirror)

Day 127 (November 7th, 2010)
Title: Circus Mirror

When I look at this picture, I'm reminded of strange, dark tales, like Something Wicked This Way Comes (Ray Bradbury) and The Thief of Always (Clive Barker).  Sinister events that occur with children and the act of growing up and what might be even worse than getting older.  I've always enjoyed stories where the "monster" is more ethereal and you have to use your imagination to create what the evil really is.  As descriptive as great authors can be, I think ones own personal imagination can be even more frightening and scary. 

Enjoy!

Photo 365 - Day 85 (Duck Reflection)

Day 85 (September 27th, 2010)
Title: Duck Reflection

When I saw this duck, looking at his reflection (course, I'm not really sure he is doing that), I was reminded by of the story, The Ugly Duckling by Hans Christian Anderson.  Basically, the story goes: Duck, born looking like it fell out of the storks basket a few hundred feet up, gets picked on by other ducks.  He decides he's had enough, he learns Duck-Fu, and the next time the kids try and mess with him he was going to go all "medieval" on them.  But, through his training he learns that he does not need to beat them up because they are all superficial, materialistic, self-centered egotist ducks.  UD (as his friends call him now), learns to find inner-peace, gets a masters degree in both electrical engineering and architecture so he can build climate controlled DuckMansions(TM), so he and his friends don't have to fly South for the winter.  Now, he and his other "ugly" friends laugh and mock those other "pretty" ducks that have to fly south, while they drink Barcardi and play shuffleboard. 

And he lived happily ever after. 

Hans was a bit of a messed up writer.
