A New 100 Days of a Photo a Day

Independence Child

Today is Day 260 of this weird, worrisome and wonderful year of 2017.

A companion on the digital art journey posted that she is on a 100-day challenge to capture and post a photograph on her blog every day. My first reaction was: 100 Days! I’ve been delighted with just finishing my 30-day challenges. Second reaction was: I want to do that! Third reaction was: Sleep on it! So, I did.

This morning when I discovered that there are 105 days left in this year, which would give me 5 days of wiggle room, I decided to go for it. 

Day 1/100: Celebrating Independence

It’s the celebration of Independence here in Mexico, so I’ve taken a lot of photos over the past few days. Which to choose? 

 

Since many of the activities here are focused on the children, it’s hard not to fall in love with their faces. I call this one Independence Child and the expression on her face makes me think she was being most patient with the adults around her including me. May she stay independent ... and patient. 

I added the red backdrop to emphasize the colors of Mexico.
