October 2014 - 30 Day Photo Challenge - DAY 10:BLUE

I am feeling blue today.

I am missing the scenery on the shores of Lake Superior. The calming waters and serene surroundings gave me such great inspiration.

The subtle placement of the Adirondack chairs on the beach and the happy accident of a rock placed just right on a smooth-grained log make the photo enthusiast's job extra enjoyable.

I long for the soothing sound of the waves crashing on the shore. It seems like an oxymoron to say a crashing sound can be soothing, but that is the result.

In the chaos that is my life's schedule right now, I could use a little soothing crash right now.

What's in a Name? Why Casual Day Images?

Once I made the decision to create a blog devoted to my love of photography, I needed a name.

After spending the better part of a morning trying to come up with a BlogSpot name that was not already taken, I gave up and went for a bike ride. Sometimes, getting up and walking (or riding) away from a problem can give the most clarity for discovering an answer.

About six years ago, I came up with an idea for creating one-of-a-kind jewelry designs using recycled denim jeans. The name I came up with for my line of jewelry was Casual Day Designs.

Upon returning from my bike ride, I typed casualdayimages.blogspot.com into the "Address" prompt of the "Create a new blog" window, and had a winner.

Through this blog, while I wouldn't mind sharing with the world (or anyone who stumbles on this page) my love of photography, I basically created the page for a personal recording of the passion I have for the craft.

I want to resurrect the images that have become buried in the archives of my pictures files as well as be accountable to myself through prompts and challenges to learn new techniques and keep taking Images every Day...nothing formal--just Casual.
