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.

Praying Mantis (Day 144)<br />
<br />
So there I was in Washington’s National Airport, sitting/lying on the marble floor smack dab in the middle of the main terminal concourse shooting straight up at the domed ceiling when I was approached by members of the airport’s security force quite concerned with what I was doing. <br />
<br />
I explained my photo blog and that on this particular day, I was intrigued by the fact that the skylights on the ceiling looked like the eyes of a praying mantis and the girders; the framing of the rest of the creature’s triangular face. <br />
<br />
I am assuming that they thought I was insane but determined that I didn’t pose a security risk, so after ten minutes of questioning I was allowed to leave.<br />
<br />
Am I crazy or do you see it too?<br />
