This photo a day challenge with the themes was started by Saturdays Child, I found it through Cajame Creations blog.
Along the way other people have joined have in at various stages Chez Hippo, Crafty Bags, Frances Jose, Microbio, Running Rabbit Arts and Crafts - do stop by their blogs.
There is now just three of us that are still aiming for our 365 - Tailwags & Treats and theothermousie
Now the idea of a photo a day is not new many people take up the challenge, but we have made it our own with the themes or daily rule that we have all created.
If you like taking photos another great photo a day platform is blipfoto, I can also be found on there Mouse Dreams.
So these are the rules:
Photo must be taken on the day, you dont have to write anything to go with the image (unless the rule states you do), if possible blog your image on the same day - but dont worry if you have to do catch up posts as the important thing is that the photo has been taken on the right day.
