8:11 December Highlights

On January 1 2010, I resolved to take a picture of what I was doing at 8:11 PM every single day for the whole year. I wasn’t sure what it would be like. Would I keep it up, or would I fall off the wagon (as is the case with virtually every other new year’s resolution I’ve ever made)? Would the photos be interesting or would they be completely monotonous?

Well, 2 years later, the photos might be uninteresting to others, but I find that making myself take this daily photo was an amazing way to keep track of experiences throughout the year. I love it.  (I haven’t missed a day yet!). Who knows how long I’ll actually keep this up, but I don’t foresee 8:11 pics going away any time soon. 

That said, here are my favorite 8:11 shots from December (sidenote: I finally got an iPhone last month, so you will notice that the photo quality has improved dramatically…thank goodness!).
