Oct 2


It crept up on us quickly, but this week is DILOA!

This time we’re letting fotogs pick their 24 hour period in which to shoot. As zen says, “Your day might not be my day.” But you only have until Sunday, October 7, to pick a day, shoot, and submit up to 24 photos to our Flickr site.

Any and all fotogs are welcome to submit. The only requirement is that you upload your shots (digital or film) to the Flickr site by Wednesday, October 10. You may pick your one best shot, your “Photographer’s Choice” shot, and it will be included in the final group regardless of outside judging.

We’re still working on the judging part. To check out the Inaugural DILOA photo finalists, go here (there are some meet-up shots mixed in–so you can see what some of us look like!).

We’re looking for quality shots that represent the life of our town. So clean your equipment, check your calendar to see which 24-hour period works best for you, and GO!

Oops, and I forgot to mention that prints of all photos submitted will be given to the Asheville Library for their North Carolina collection, so you must agree to share your shots.

The new cereal bar, eaties, was the highlight of the kidlings’ weekend. They got to sit on sofas, watch old Three Stooges’ cartoons, and eat sugared cereal. Heaven!

You can check out shots from the geeky but fun “Day in the Life of Asheville” photo get-together here, which was a highlight of my weekend.

Photographers are total gearheads. E-spouse is getting nervous about my foray into freelance photography. Yes, I’ll probably spend more on gear than I make from taking photos this year. But you never know!

And I’ve posted some new photos to Flickr.

So, how was your weekend?
