I’ve seen a lot of discussion on some photography sites about doing a photo a day for an entire year, and I have to say, the idea is daunting. I’ve done several photo-a-day months, and I’ve enjoyed them enormously, but the pressure to just take something already is sometimes overwhelming. I’ve committed to a lighter version of the same concept and will be posting a photo a week for 2010. No particular subjects, and a great number of them will probably be cell phone camera photos since that’s often what I have handy, but at the end of it, I hope to have something that shows a taste of what 2010 was like.

For our first weekly photo, I’ll start with (naturally) Paisley. It’s been ridiculously cold, and while she has been quite comfortable through the entire business, she has taken to burrowing quite extensively in her blankets. Today, I found her with her fabric hat tipped over so she was in it like a little teacup, with her blankets all pulled down around her. Quite sensible, actually.

Someone was a little bit stinky and needed a nail trim to boot, so bathtime it was.

I’m welcoming in the new year with another monthlong photo-a-day project, which I’ve done a few times before with great success.  The simple act of forcing myself to pick up a camera and photograph something every day causes me to be more comfortable with my camera, and I have gotten a few notable shots as a result.  If you’re interested, you can check out my past efforts.

As usual, the hedgehogs will feature prominently in the photos for this month.  I started off last night with Paisley, who was happy to model in exchange for some tasty roasted waxworms.

I’ve had an evening of unadulterated cute.  First, Chopper and I watched all the special features on my newly arrived WALL-E special edition DVD, followed by the movie (for the fourth time, yeah).  It is my favorite movie of all time.  Yep.  It sure is.

Chopper had Paisley with him during the movie and at the end, I decided that it was time again for a feeding frenzy of mealworms.  Mmm.  Paisley sort of fell off Chopper onto the down throw I’d been using and stayed curled in a ball.  I fed her some mealworms off a spoon (what, spoiled?) and then busted out the camera.

Tell me this isn’t stupendously cute.
