In a rather roundabout way, just discovered an exciting blog photography meme started by Jan at Murrieta 365 . Saw the first entry on Pamela's The Dust Will Wait blog. She had seen it on Lisa's Chaos photography blog. Anyway!
Jan is calling her new meme First Day of Each Month. Here are her directions: "The goal is to capture one thing repeatedly on the first day of each month. It can be a landscape, a person, an animal, a project; whatever your focus is fine. It can be a record of where you are each first day of the month." Interesting exercise, right?
I decided to photograph Kentucky sunsets. Regardless of the season, we have some spectacular evening light shows or just a quiet dissolve into night. I'm anxious to see what the year reveals. So, here we have Kentucky Sunset 1, taken on January 1, 2011:
Now in the interest of full disclosure I did not shoot this wonderful photo. My friend Janice did. But since the time, date, and subject was right I'm sure she won't mind my using it. Next month I'll do my own!
If you'd enjoy seeing some more beautiful photography from all over and on many subjects, just click on Jan's webpage for a list of other First of the Month players.

I'm so glad you've joined in. Kentucky is such a wonderful place and has so much to offer; I'm looking forward to many sunsets on the First of the Month.
That's such a beautiful picture! I might have to join in on this meme too. My picture will be a little late (obviously), but it looks like fun!
this will be an interesting change process....
gorgeous colors by the way!
Great shot n subject. I am still trying to figure out what subject I want to focus on every month. I may use my pin oak tree in the back yard. Glad you joined in Faye. Jan also has another fun meme every Sunday...SOOC.
So beautiful! I was actually thinking of photographing sunrises since I have the pleasure of seeing them from my kitchen window every morning! I plan to join in next month.
Gorgeous sunsets, you are lucky! All too often ours are obscured by cloud and rain.
That's amazing and those colours are more like the ones you'd find in a painting, rather than an actual photo. Beautiful.
so beautiful :)
That is just gorgeous, and beautiful colors!
That's gorgeous! I look forward to seeing the next one. :)
