Reality intruding

I think there has been a slight misunderstanding, I've not yet reach my birthday only hit 351 post, which struck me as a good number, but still short of the 365. The big day will be the 14th of February, but thanks for the birthday wishes i will enjoy them when i'm a bit older.

I've added lesson 2 to the photo course, hope you like it.

Just read a story of a Blogger from Alaska who has gone missing, this prompted me to have a look at her blog and I found this.

“daily reminders”

“1. there are at least two people in this world who you would die for

2. at least 15 people in this world love you in some way

3. the only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you

4. a smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don’t like you

5. every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep

6. you mean the world to someone

7. you are special and unique

8. someone that you don’t even know exists loves you

9. when you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it

10. when you think the world has turned its back on you take another look

11. always remember the compliments you received. forget about the rude comments”

As far as I can see there has been no news about her return. It’s strange, I see bloggers come and go and for the most part just presume they have just stopped posting, but reading this makes me wonder. I hope there will be some good news soon for her and her family.

Sorry Brett - you don't look a day over 30 - honest!

A Valentine's baby - wow! That should be easy to remember - even for me!

Please tell us you are going to keep posting, even after 365! I would miss seeing your visions of the world. They keep me inspired.

Blog Action Day - Climate change, virgin birth, flat earth.

Climate change, I have to admit that I’m very skeptical about the existence of climate change and the whole global warming thing. My basis for this is that we (humans) have only been here for such a short time and for a large period of that were not really in a position to judge what was happening around us. An even smaller period of time is the length of time we have been able to accurately measure things like temperature or the size of the ice caps, so to be able to say that things are changing outside of the norm, when we really have no idea what the norm is, is like seeing a snow flake and predicting the start of an ice age. Now I known that lots of very important people seem to have been convinced that there is a problem but remember past world leaders and experts also had some strange ideas (flat earth, virgin birth, communist ruling the plant, woman’s heads over heating if they learn too much). Are they right or are they wrong, I really do not know, I personally think that we do

I wrote this as part of the second days post: “365 different photos, I’m daunted and intrigued at the same time. Daunted with the task of taking the images and writing words to tie it all together and intrigued at what will be here in a year’s time. Will anybody see this? Will it make any sense?” 70,849 words, 367 photos, 3014 comments, and 43358 visitors from 164 countries later and it’s all done, I’m 42 and have the answer to those questions. Yes somebody has seen it and no it really does not make much sense, but that really does not seem to matter that much. I wanted to mark the passing of a year in my life and have ended up with a fantastic record of a year in both words and pictures. More than that it has changed my life, I have gained a confidence I never had, I can write without fear, my photography skill has improve and I realise that you can do nearly anything if you work at it. One of my dreams was that it would become a “blog of note”, I still smile at the feeling’s that hit

Blog of note!

You known how it is, you’ve loads to do and not much time, but with a little luck and a bit of careful planning and you can fit it all in and than someone makes you BLOG OF NOTE!!!!!! WOW, Arghhhhhhhhhh!. From around 25 readers to 3451 by the end of the day, and what a post to have on the blog, I nearly did not write it, it was very personal and maybe too private to share, but I known that there are others, like me, out there and thought that if it just helped one person it made the risk worth while, well its shared now. Now this is pressure, writing knowing that lots of people will read this, do I make a grand statement, do I get stage fright and dry up, no I’ll just babble on as I always do, it’s worked so far. First, Blog of note people, thank you, this really means a lot to me, I’ve read most of the blogs of notes since I started blogging and feel stunned to be in their company. Next, if you’re reading this blog for the first time, welcome, make your self at home, there’s
