First of the Month





My subjects are these sycamore trees located next to the tennis courts.  (I don't know about anyone else, but I'm having a lot of problems with my photos disappearing or only half appearing; it's happened on several post on different blogs.  Here, I've actually posted the same photo twice, once I didn't enlarge it.)  

The goal is to capture one thing repeatedly on the first of each month. It can be a landscape, a person, an animal, a project; whatever your focus is, is fine. It can even be a record of where you are each First of the Month. I'll open the linky each month on the 1st, and leave it open for a week or so, to give everyone a chance to post. Let's see if this flies. (Please link back to this blog, thanks.)


Go take more photos,

    I got to see your picture! Glad, even though I'm jealous of all the leaves!

    I had a bit of trouble with Mr. Linky yesterday but it sorted out. Wondered what was going on with your photo. Thought you might be just holding a place until you had a chance to take your FOTM shot. Shows what I know about photography.

    Anyway, your sycamores are making big promises for spring!

    I remember when you first posted this photo and launched the first of the month. Looks like the spring is finally kicking in

    I love these trees. We have lots of them lining the creek behind our home, and I especially like the huge leaves.
    Your pictures came through just fine.
    Have a happy week Jan.

    Finally some buds are appearing on the trees. This is my first time posting a photo to your group. I found it mid January and have taken a photo each month from the same spot. Today I finally got my act together to join your linsky on time! Hopefully next mth I pull it together too. :)

    Interesting concept for a meme. Will try and think of a subject worthy of this kind of documentation.
