Welcome

Welcome to 365pixels πŸ‘‹πŸ»

Home for my 365 photo challenge, where I attempt to take and post a photo every day for the year.

Click on Photos to see all the photos on one page or scroll down. You can find more pictures and some not-very-good blogging at Cliff538.

I hope the pictures bring a smile and inspire you to take more pictures.

Thank you for stopping by.

Beginnings (53/365)

Auto-generated description: A breathtaking view of a vibrant sunset or sunrise on the horizon against a dark sky.

Ocean Glow (52/365)

Auto-generated description: A serene ocean view at sunset features a wide sky with scattered clouds and a gently lit horizon.

I’ve decided to stick with my current format and just post all the days' extra shots under the Name “Stray Pixels”, since they’re strays or extras from the daily shot. I will also add the category stray-pixels to the post so they are easier to find.

I’ve struggled with how to handle the days' other photos, making a whole new blog, or making stray pixels a separate post, but this seems to be the cleanest, easiest answer. All the photos are automatically sent to Flickr as well.

Damn Good Water (38/365)

Auto-generated description: A bottle of sparkling mineral water labeled Aqua de Piedra stands on a table next to a glass with a slice of lime.

It may sound weird, but sparkling water (water with gas) varies greatly in taste, hardness, softness, and level of carbonation, so when you find one that stands out, it’s almost exciting! LOL

First time with this one. It’s outstanding. Plus, it looks even better with Bokeh in the background ; )

Pipes (37/365)

Long day of driving home, 6+ hours on the road, took exactly two pictures. This is one.

Ocean Beauty (35/365)

Took the opportunity to drive down Highway 1 in California. It has been closed for the past three years and has just reopened. We had coastal advisories due to high surf and sneaker waves, which created good photo opportunities.
