355.365 - December 21, 2013 - My wife had a busy day today doing haircuts and hair color jobs for several people. She finished off they day coloring the hair of the daughter from a family that is good friends with us. It was a pretty drastic color change for her as she was previously a darker blonde. When she was done I asked her if she would pose for my photo of the day and she graciously agreed. We all thought the color turned out great and she seemed really happy with it as well!

344.365 - December 10, 2013 - Tonight started off great but finished not-so-great. My wife and I went to see the new "Hunger Games" movie with her brother and his wife. It was great getting out to dinner and a movie together. However, when we got home I discovered our apartment complex had towed our other car! It had had a flat tire on Friday (it has a slow leak and I don't drive it very often now that I ride the bus to work) and they had put a note on it that it needed to be taken care of by Monday or it would be towed. So, Saturday night I had inflated the tire and move the car to a different spot so they would know the car was not "inoperable". But, they had towed it anyway! Grrrrrr!! I was not happy and therefore lost my desire and motivation to take the day's picture when we got home! So, I'm uploading another pic from a shoot I did with my wife in a nearby park.
It cost me $134 to get my car back the next day and I phoned the management to tell them they needed to reimburse me since they towed it without just cause. It was not violating any of their rules when they towed it. They claimed the car's tire was flat when they towed it, but when I got to the tow yard to get the car, the tire was low, but not flat. I took a picture of it at the towing yard so they could see that I did not add air to it after the fact. I also asked the towing company if they had added any air to the tire and they said they had not! So, I e-mailed the picture to the management with the polite insistence that they reimburse me. I'm still waiting to hear back from them. I'm sure I'll have more on this later!

“Seis siglos después de su fundación, Roma decidió que el año empezaría el primer día de enero.
Hasta entonces, cada año nacía el 15 de marzo. No hubo más remedio que cambiar la fecha, por razón de guerra. España ardía. La rebelión, que desafiaba el poderío imperial y devoraba miles y más miles de legionarios, obligó a Roma a cambiar la cuenta de sus días y los ciclos de sus asuntos de estado.
Largos años duró el alzamiento, hasta que por fin la ciudad de Numancia, la capital de los rebeldes hispanos, fue sitiada, incendiada y arrasada. En una colina rodeada de campos de trigo, a orillas del río Duero, yacen sus restos. Casi nada ha quedado de esta ciudad que cambió, para siempre, el calendario universal.
Pero a la medianoche de cada 31 de diciembre, cuando alzamos las copas, brindamos por ella, aunque no lo sepamos, para que sigan naciendo los libres y los años.”
Eduardo Galeano
Day 2 of my Project 365. Today, I used an image I'm also using for a photography scavenger hunt I'm taking part in. This is my interpretation of the Holidays are over. It's always a sad sign the first week of January to see the tree get put out on the street. However, having today off was a perfect opportunity to clean up the house and remove all the holiday decorations.
Note: for copyright purposes, this is a low-resolution image.
This was taken on a rainy hike in Forest Park. And it was raining. A lot. Even by Portland standards. I was hiking for about 2.5 hrs and I don't think it stopped for even 30 seconds.
I was trying to think of a way to photographically communicate the immense amount of rain and decided upon this image. I left the raindrops on the photo as they fell on the camera's lens.
