This is what happened when the Wifey and I hooked up.
We had a baby.
The baby got hit in the face with a shovel a dozen times and then later in life was bitten by a zombie.
Life sucks sometimes.
Ahora sí....me voy de barcelona
Dejo atrás para mi una de las mejores ciudades del mundo, dejo atrás bellísimas personas que he conocido y se acaba una experiencia que para mi ha sido un sueño realidad....pues sí, a veces se cumplen
En breves me voy a Chiclana así que por lo menos me consuelo porque veré a mi familia que hace meses que no veo
un bso a todos

Long ago it must be, I have a photograph.

I cannot believe the year is over! Thank you to everyone for sharing all your photos throughout the year and thank you for all the encouraging comments. The P52 has been a lot of fun!
At the end of a long 2nd floor corridor this was the site that greated us. Myself and Andre Govia both decided to take this shot and walked carfully to the collapse. Andre went first and fired off three shots. I aligned my tripod and as Andre walked back down the corridor I could feel the floor flexing with every one of his steps. I fired off five shots and in the low light it took some time. I have never been so desperate to finish a shot, safe in the knowledge that I had really pushed my luck this time.
Well I made it through my 365 project. I've mostly enjoyed it and it's definitely pushed me as a photographer. There have been time I've really enjoyed it and others where I've not even wanted to take photos. Got there though :)

I was going to sit here an moan on about the fact that I didn't sleep last night due to a sudden unexpected bout of cat aids induced vomiting, but I really can't be bothered to type...
I miss my best friend and I'm lonely.
That is all about all there is to this picture really.
Today marks the end of an incredible journey...........
Okay that sounded cheesy but I really mean it. I started this project 365 days ago, with the intention of just documenting my year. I thought it would be cool to have a photographical diary of sorts, no biggie. Somewhere in this thinking I veered off my original path and starting taking some actual photos. I have learned a lot about photography, technically speaking. I wouldn't say I have learned a lot about myself, because I am pretty well rooted with who I am, but I will say that I have pushed myself to try things that were otherwise outside my little bubble of comfort and with that said, I have surprised myself on several occasions. I really am having a hard time putting into words how I am actually feeling. I am kind of sad that this is over yet I am kind of breathing a sigh of relief and feeling accomplished. I totally finished! One photo every freaking day for the last 365 days. Can I get a big WOOHOO!!!!!
When I started this project, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I just posted photos, I was unaware of what groups were, I had no Flickr friends. I think around day 7, I stumbled upon =TOM='s 365 group and posted my photos there. That is where it all started for me. From there I was introduced to FGR and TRP, then on to TOTW. I really think if it was not for those groups I would of ran out of inspiration and quit this project rather early on. They helped me tremendously.
I have to say that I have met some incredible people here. I am too scared to thank everyone individually for fear that I would forget someone, that would break my heart. I am so thankful to everyone who took a moment out of their day to stop by and check out my photo, and make a comment, cheer me on during the bad times. That has been the fuel on my Flickr fire. I had the honor of actually meeting some of my fellow Flickr-ers in real life and that was one of the highlights of this project. It was so cool to meet up with people that shared the same interests and passions for photography.
I have been stressing all week about what kind of photo to take and what I was going to say, I am just writing this on a whim, and from my heart. After I stressed all month about this shot, I decided to just bust out my smile. It had been an on going joke that i never smile, and the truth is, I can not smile for a photo, I look like a knob. I have been practicing this smile for hours for this photo! So there you have it, a smiley photo for the end of this wonderful project~~
Where do I go from here? I have no idea. I know that i am taking a break for a week for two, and I will decide from there. I am thinking about a 52 weeks, or a 365ish,... we will see!!! I know that it is going to be weird tomorrow not taking a photo!!!!
Well I am off to shower all this paint off of me and get ready to ring in this new year! I hope everyone has a safe and great night!!!!!
PS. Pimpexposure, you promised me 100 bucks for a smile, here it is..................
365 - The 2010 Edition * December 31, 2010
Well - if you were expecting some kind of big, flashy finish, with balloons and confetti - either you don't know me very well - or you got here too early. We're going out to a local club with friends to ring in the new year - not exactly my cup of tea - but after a year of putting up with the time hog I call my "365" - I could hardly say no to Jo Ann, could I? (that's a rhetorical question..) Of course not... So - there still could be balloons and confetti in our immediate future, but they probably won't be in any pictures. I'm going to close my 365 project with this deceptively difficult, and marginally interesting image of myself balancing on a slippery rail, using a leaf for balance in the same way that Dumbo used his feather to convince himself that he could fly...
I started the project on a lark, egged on by certain parties who's real names shall be omitted - but they know who they are - right Amy? I had followed a few friends' 365's and I always loved knowing that they would be there every day. And I thought I understood how hard that might be - to come up with a little something every day - but I was wrong.. Like balancing on a slippery railroad rail - it's a LOT harder than it looks... Some days, it was easy - I couldn't wait to spill my guts about something that was bothering me - or that I wanted to share with y'all. But some days, I really, really, just wanted to go to bed, pull the covers up, and hope tomorrow would be a better day...
But I sucked it up, and posted something anyway.. I think I only called one or two "Mulligans" - days when what I posted sucked royally - and I said so. And considering how few days I was really inspired - I think that's a pretty good average.. 365 photos with at least some part of myself in the photo - and 365 descriptions which turned out to reveal more about myself than the pictures did.. I deeply appreciate everyone who at least stopped by from time to time to see what I was up to. But if it weren't for a few truly devoted friends who came by nearly every day, and offered a word of encouragement - a laugh - or a thoughtful disagreement - I'm quite sure I would have given up a long time ago..
I'm not gonna name any names *here* either - you know who you are, right Mind Meld? I don't need to name names, do I Tara? Lady Margaret, Darren, M-C1, Mona, Marybeth, Preston, DaniGirl, Krista, Bill, Sparkleplenty, Anna, Heather, Catkleine, Robin, Leslie, Catmarie.... Hmmm... This is going to be trouble, isn't it? I'm going to leave some of my friends out and hurt their feelings, ain't I Daynna? I'm going to forget to mention Steve, and he's gonna get his underwear all up in a bunch - or Eva - just because she's been out of the country for a while.. Or Jennie, because she's all up in Tennessee somewhere, and can't get a signal..
But of course, the one person that really have to thank the most, is my sweet Jo Ann, who put up with far too many nights alone on the couch while I labored to come up with something - anything to post.. Thank you Sweetie-Pie - I love you!
Thanks y'all - I've had a lot of fun - but now it's time to see what's up around the bend...
Hello People of the Internets and Depression Press Folllowers/Contacts
[Part 1 of a potentially unfinished communiqué]
I'm still here (J.D. Salinger is not), however in a new location (CHICAGO USA, ILL STATE UNDERGROUND™), still depressed (new meds + hott therapist keeps me happy), and still inky (actually quite pixel-y 2.0 nowdays).
If I promised you a print aka "art" and nothing ever showed in your mailbox, well, my dog probably ate it. Maybe for real. You should send me a note a remind me. Please.
XO,
K.James

I shot this picture in 2007
Who knew they even made an "e-mail me" conversation heart?
I, for one, prefer to look at the big picture.
With any luck this photo will climb to the "interestingness" of my other broken heart photo.

You can't quite tell but the river beside me has the bluest water i've ever seen, it's so pretty.
And finally this project is over. I was excited to begin with but as time progressed I found that instead of taking photo's for me I was taking photo's just to make it through the week and there were a few times where I wanted to quit, but ultimately i'm glad I kept to it and finished it. But anyway I do feel like my relationship with my sister; Gemma has gotten a lot stronger through getting her to model for me, often forcing her to do so because she wasn't as keen to go out exploring as I was haha.
Finally this year I was able to take photography as a class at school which I feel helped develop my personal taste towards photography.
I did managed to find some great hidden locations in my rural town ( not even sure it qualifies as a town it's so small haha) that I never knew existed, I realized the place is actually quite picturesque, more than it's given credit for.
I don't quite feel like i've come out of this project any better than before really, I hope to further develop my personal style, I hope to get to the stage where people can look at my photographs and instantly know thats it's my work. But a huge thank you everyone that viewed, favourited or left lovely comments on my work. It made it more worth it knowing there are people who do like what I do so yeah. This whole post seems on a down note but no i'm happy i've completed this and glad with some of the photos I took, I was a good learning experience if nothing else.
