keepers

Early in 2009, I decided to capture an image every calendar day for an entire year. 365 days later, I have more gray hair, have aged a decade and alienated loved ones, but I did it and, most importantly, I didn’t miss a single day. Comments and criticisms are welcomed, both on composition and technique, and on content. Thanks for looking.

Walked past an unopened “fun-size” candy bar in the parking lot on the way home this afternoon. Assumed that someone was bummed that they didn’t get to enjoy it.<br />

Some 3 Musketeers fun facts (from Wikipedia):<br />
<br />
* Outside the U.S. and Canada, the product is known as Milky Way; this name is, in turn, used in the U.S. for the candy known elsewhere as the Mars Bar;<br />
* It was first produced in 1932;<br />
* Originally, it had three pieces of candy in one package, flavored chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, hence the name;<br />
* Rising costs and wartime restrictions on sugar saw the phasing out of the vanilla and strawberry pieces to the more popular chocolate;<br />
* A standard size 3 Musketeers bar (60g) has 257 calories, 5 grams of saturated fat, and 40 grams of sugar.<br />
<br />
Yes, I am aware that this is a really random picture. However, it amused me.<br />
