Day 8: You are Safe

I am afraid of ladders.

If you recall, I had quite the fall once. My latest home project has been painting all my plain white walls and the stairway caused me some severe anxiety. I was literally talking to myself out loud saying, "You are safe...you are 100% safe." When I finished I felt like I had conquered an amazing feat.

Photography: I did in fact take this picture myself. Thanks to tripods and remotes you can take pictures of yourself without having to hold the camera out in front of your face :) Did I capture just how high I was? I was seriously sweating.

Also I found this website today: I read a tutorial that suggested amateurs shoot without doing much editing at first. This prevents taking shortcuts with the camera only to "fix" them later. I have been taking pictures for almost 7 months now, so I figure in a few months I will incorporate editing techniques as a part of this project.
