Since the address of this blog references my 365, a project I notably failed to complete, I decided to start a fresh clean blog. You know, one that doesn't reference my failure in the address ;). You will find it <a href="http://www.alisoncranephotography.com/">HERE</a> and I would love it (like really love it) if you would join me over there. It's still in the construction stage but it's up and running for now. You will see that I have teamed up with some really fabulous ladies from <a href="http://www.thebloomforum.com/">The Bloom Forum</a> as part of my 52 week challenge. Our blogs are all linked in a circle that you can click through to see how we interpreted the theme each week. I bet you will be as inspired by them as I have been! <br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">The end of one year and beginning of another makes us look back at where we have been and look ahead to where we are going. 2010 has been quite a year. I started the year with a goal of a picture a day but fell off the wagon somewhere past half way through. Though I wasn't successful in completing the project I learned a tremendous amount and my camera and about myself. I overcame my self-consciousness of shooting in public places and learned to embrace the details of life's little beautiful moments.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://murpheyblue.smugmug.com/photos/1143759778_YwrRp-O.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://murpheyblue.smugmug.com/photos/1143759778_YwrRp-O.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I captured my kids. Sometimes in obvious ways, other times more creatively. I cherish all of these images of them today and know I will only love them more as the years pass and the memories of who they once were grow thinner and harder to recall. One of the strongest things I take forward into 2011 is remembering to capture them. The smiles, the silly, the serious. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://murpheyblue.smugmug.com/photos/1143759798_i3dhp-O.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://murpheyblue.smugmug.com/photos/1143759798_i3dhp-O.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">In 2010, I was also thrilled with the chance to capture other people. It was an immense pleasure to get a chance to put it all together on people other than my kids.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://murpheyblue.smugmug.com/photos/1143759795_wRTZ8-O.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://murpheyblue.smugmug.com/photos/1143759795_wRTZ8-O.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
And speaking of capturing my kids as they are today, here's my boy. He thinks he's so funny. He came over when I was taking the calendar picture and when I would point the camera at him he'd say "cheese!" I never say that so I have no idea where he picked it up from. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

My poor blog has been neglected for so long. I wanted to say a huge thank you to those of you who have dropped me a note whether in a comment here or on Facebook. It truly gave me a wonderful feeling to have someone check in on me or say something kind about my work.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Truth be told, I have missed the challenge, perspective and creativity of my 365 project – the joy in the details shots that I never would have taken otherwise. I need to find a way to reharness that creativity without the crushing pressure of a 365 so I’m trying to decide what the new year will bring in that regard. Probably a 52 week project. I’m toying with "things I love" as a theme. Anyone have a photography project on tap for 2011? If so, I’d love to hear about it and be inspired! I’m working on a fresh new blog so I’ll some place to start anew. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Despite neglecting my blog, I haven’t abandoned my camera. I shot a couple spring lines for an online boutique which was lots of fun and indulged my slight obsession with cute kids' clothes. This weekend, I had a chance to meet up with some amazing photographers from <a href="http://www.thebloomforum.com/">The Bloom Forum</a> to eat, bond and shoot some gorgeous models.
