New Challenge A Photo a day for a year

Hi folks, I've decided to take the 'Photo a day' challenge that many photographers do. I haven't decided on all of the parameters, but check back daily for updates.

The rules, one published photo per day. Preferably shot and post processed that day.

Weather being what it is, however. Occasionally I'll publish one that I shot that didn't get published before.

I miss some things from my job with Costar, and wish all of

my former co-workers and that company nothing but the Best!

These days I'm working at various church Fellowship Halls doing church directory photos for Olan Mills. here are a few images from my most recent church, Main Street United Methodist in Suffolk VA.

This was the brand new main entry Hall to the church. They united three buildings into one Large hall, and this space is just incredible:

I'm not sure what kind of tree this is.
