Inspired to showcase my work, I have decided to take on a project in which I post a photo I have taken every day for a year. If things go well I will continue beyond that. Start date: 3/1/2010

Currently I am using a Canon Rebel T2i. For bigger versions with better quality go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/tokyoshowdown/

Last Day of the Denton Arts & Jazz Festival and I decided to post this picture of 1 of 3 parrots. The trainer taught one of them to talk and perform tricks like hang upside down. I was amazed how many people didn't know these birds had a very long lifespan.

At night a building light cast this orange hue on the bike. I like the color of the plant coming through the spokes, so I took the picture.

In front of my apartment furniture likes to migrate to this dumpster. It is expected from a college town however, as students would rather part with their items then spend the energy to move the things.

On the street near my apartment there is a lot of artwork along the walls of the buildings. In a corner this shadow man was hiding, looking out from behind a tree as he watches people pass by.

Driving down Old Scenic Loop in Grey Forest, my fiance and I spotted this old run down shack tucked away in the forest barely visible from the road. Further investigation seemed to reveal it had once been a auto repair shop as a sign advertising its services lay nearby.

Deer came into the backyard this morning. I tried to get closer, but they sensed me and quickly moved on.

More insects! Found this guy in the bushes next to our house. You can still see the silk coming from the little guy.

I like to imagine the bee had some interesting adventure on that flower and now knows it's time to move on.

Taken at the "900 Days" film set. This is the gaffer in front of a bounce board. The photo was larger but had to much going on in it so I cropped it down.
