January Theme Day--Best Photo of 2007

As it's pouring cats and dogs on Maui right now, and as I recall last time it poured this hard, most Mauians lost their power! We lost ours for nearly four days, so I'm posting this a bit early...but then I always do because I know Maui is usually the last in the time line. :Smile:

When I read the instructions in the beginning, I thought that we were supposed to post what we considered OUR OWN individual best photo, but now I see that we could also post a photo from another DP blog! I wouldn't know where to begin with that as there are so many awesome photographers contributing their photos every day!

Here's why I picked this one: this photo is a lot like me. I'm contemplating... will I move this year to another equally exotic locale? There is a strong probability. I guess 2008 will tell my story. And of course, should I move....I'll start another DP blog!

In any event, HAPPY NEW YEAR DAILY PHOTO BLOGGERS! You're an amazing group, and I'm thrilled to contribute to the world-wide daily photos!

A really great photo that compels a story-- even it one has to make up their own.

I love this one! I think it's because I have boys and a grandson and it just looks like he is sitting there thinking.

I couldn't decide and am leaving it up to the votes. I narrowed my down to seven. Yikes! Hate to say I just couldn't pick one. Come take a look and put your vote in.

Happy New Year to you and those you love.

That is such a sweet photo. Was it inspired or choreographed?

I look forward to visiting your blog more often this 2008. And you're welcome to mine, too! For some reason, my link was not included in the participating blogs for the 1st of January 2008 theme day. Sorry I wasn't able to visit your blog sooner. I was in transit the whole of yesterday. I am now back in Norwich after the most fantabulous time at home in Manila.

Happy New Year to you and everyone you hold dear!
