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.

09:09:09 (Day 248)
Originally planned on getting my Daily this morning (think 09:09:09:09:09) but was caught in a meeting. After taking a few shots of “9’s” on signs at gas stations after work, I got the idea of a nine ball.
An added bonus was that this shot required me to grab a beer with a friend at a local pool hall. Always up for that.
Aside: why do gas stations price to a tenth of a cent anyway?

![Teddy Ballgame (Day 246)<br />
<br />
So my buddy Tom Frazier, who works in the office next to me, has a copy of a famous picture of Ted Williams taken on opening day in 1947 [a Brearley Collection photo to give them credit]. He also has a somewhat cheesy prismatic award of some sort sitting on his office windowsill (sorry Tom). <br />
<br />
At this time of year, the light hitting the prism creates a rainbow off the bat of TW hanging roughly six feet away. Tom and I noted that this occurred at exactly 3:42pm last Friday but unfortunately I had already planned a shot for that day. So instead, I came back slightly earlier today to capture it (days are getting shorter now … bummer). I think it’s pretty cool.<br />
