Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 52

Posted on December 23, 2014 by Tom

I’m happy to report that this post (finally) wraps up my Photo-A-Day project from 2013! It only took me almost an entire year after 2013’s completion to get it done — but done it is. Week 52 is actually a nine-day stretch from Dec. 23-31. If you’ve traveled this long pictorial road with me, thank you. Hopefully it was enjoyable — I know I enjoyed living it! Finally — and for the last time — to see any of the images here (or in any of the Photo-A-Day posts) at full size, simply click right on it.

Photo-A-Day 2013: Top 25 Outtakes — January Through June

Posted on August 22, 2013 by Tom

Since I’ve fallen behind a bit on updating my Photo-A-Day project — not behind on taking photos, mind you, but merely on working them up and getting them into the blog — I figured I’d drop this post with 25 selected outtakes from the first six months of 2013. These images were all in consideration for best photo of their given day, but fell short. They were worked up and ready to go, so I present them here in a gallery format. To see each image at full size, simply click on it in the gallery!

Posted on March 12, 2013 by Tom

After a brief delay thanks to work roadies to Miami and Chicago, I finally got a chance to knock out some of the photos from the past couple weeks. Good news is, between this post and the next Photo-a-Day weekly recap, there will be plenty of Miami and Chicago to go round. Enjoy!
