52 Photos in 52 Weeks
One of my goals this year was to focus a bit more on photography and try to improve my photo taking skills. A few fellow bloggers suggest I join 52 Frames where we're given a weekly assignment and just one week to take a photo. I thought it sounded like fun and decided to give it a try.
