I've been tracking the moon cycle all month. It's sort of perfect that tonight it's a full moon.

Day 365
While I was pumping gas, I noticed these vibrantly colored crape myrtle trees in the near by parking lot. Since today is the last day of this project, there will be more photos than normal. Oddly, this set turned out a lot better than past sets. Maybe 365 days of practice helps...just maybe...or yes.

Day 364
Today, we awoke to more fog. I took some photos while waiting for Alex's bus.
Later in the morning, I had to go pick something up, in the city. Traffic was sparse on the bridge, so I was able to take a photo of the fog on the river and around the train bridge. I'm a very careful driver and after this project, I can take a lot of photos while moving quickly. I didn't take a panoramic. I cropped it, so you didn't see the interior of my car, the road and a lot of foggy sky. Instead you see the pretty part.

Day 362
Since our camellia bush was the reason I started this project, I wanted to include it in the last week of the project. These were taken at dusk.

Day 361
The sky is clear tonight, so the moon glowed brightly. This is not quite a full moon, but it's close.

Day 360
The varying colors of leaves on the trees are perfect for panoramic photos. In addition to that, my husband decided to stop on a road that went over the James River. There was low traffic and a side walk. I wanted to take another photo of the river, but from a different view.

Day 359
Since there is less than a week left of this project, I want to finish it by taking photos of some of my favorite natural things from the project. While outside a restaurant, our daughter noticed this tree had no leaves. After further inspection via a lens, I realized it was a dead pine tree. There were a sparse amount of dead pine needles left on these spiky branches.

Day 358
While I was photographing the white azaleas yesterday, I noticed the creek run off was full of leaves and reflected the trees nicely. Today, I went back and took photos of it.
This is the last stop motion film of this project. They have been great to make. I'll definitely make more in the future, but of other things.

Day 357
Though the weather is getting colder, there are still a few flowers alive.
This large azalea bush is by the entrance to our neighborhood.
I noticed this tree, though bare of most leaves, still had a few flowers blooming on it's limbs.

Day 354 - Halloween
Since today was Halloween and we had band practice, I only took photos of the mums on my front porch. The light was low, so this is the best one of that set.

Day 352
Today, we had rain and wind.
This leaf clung to our living room window with the rain drops.
While riding in the car, the rain drops rode with us.

Day 349
I took my daughter to school today. On the way back to the car, I took photos of the beautiful sky and the tree in front of my car.
