I took a Photo of the Day – of the kids, each day this July. It’s the POTD Kids Version 2011.  I didn’t make it as big of a deal as April 2010 Photo of the Day, and the theme was the kids.

Here’s the summary:

• I took 1055 pictures
• 2 days I took only 2 photos
• July 4th I took 176 – lots of firework
• I averaged 34 pitures per day.
• I have a new favorite of each of the kids.

Here’s a link to the full slide show.

It was a heckuva month. Here are the numbers:

• I took 1291 total pictures – 8 Gb of disk space.
• One day I took only 5 photos and used the first one I took (April 21st).
• One day I took 98 and still wasn’t happy with the lighting.  (April 3rd).
• I averaged 43 photos per day.

Here are the photos in a full screen slide show:

The beauty part of this is that I usually keep a <<MonthName>> All Star Album for the photos I really like.  I usually get about 10 to 25 per month – April All-Stars have 84 and we didn’t even travel anywhere.  I’ll put that album up later this week.

Even after 30 days – I have ideas for pictures that I haven’t used.  My inital plan was to get one portrait of Jake, Abbie, Erika, Maggie, Adrian and Nala, have 6 black and white pictures, have 6 pictures about running, take 6 food photos and then have 6 wild cards, but I knew that wasn’t going to work out after about day two.  I didn’t publish any food shots.

So thank you for looking, sorry about the bad ones – I warned people from the beginning.  I am going to buy myself a camera bag as I told myself if I did all 30 days, that was my reward.  I did get a little more addicte6d to photography, so I’m going to have to change up the Photo of the Week somehow….
