It's hard to believe that January of 2014 is nearly gone. As in 2013, I've resolved to self-critique and choose 12 favorite photos from each month. Once selected, I'll post them to this photo blog. Enjoy January's... click on image for a larger file to view and thanks for looking!

| The next afternoon she was hanging out on a rock pile just five blocks from where I live. |
