secret of life

James Taylor sang it right… “The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time” but don’t you find yourself saying “Where did the summer go?”  I’m right there with ya.  That’s one reason why I decided to start capturing the little things every day with a some help from Chantelle from Fat Mum Slim.

Each month she reveals a list of daily prompts. All you have to do is use any camera you have {iPhone, Smartphone, Digital, DSLR, Polaroid … seriously anything that captures photos} and use the daily prompt as inspiration.

I’m a recent Instagram convert & since I usually always have my phone with me most places I go, I’ve been snapping away since April.  If you’re not familiar with this snazzy free app that’s available on most smart phones… it has a number of filters you can choose for your photos that make them look artsy in a second.  It also creates a feed that your friends can follow.  You can follow me @tuesdaycat.

If you want to start remembering life’s little moments, I invite you to play with me (and a bunch of other people all over the world) starting this August…
