February 1st - A is for...Anise seed and Apple!

What a way to start the month. I wanted to do better, but had a rough day, I'm sorry.
Tomorrow, I'm hoping to get an awesome shot to share. This one is my fruit bowl that is in the back corner of my stove next to my spice rack. There's an apple there. The one on the right is inside my cupboard where I have more spices, and there's some anise seed there. Not exactly what I had planned, but I wanted to get something in, didn't want to fail on my year of photography so soon! I made the background apple red, literally. I pulled the color from the red in the apple. :)

July 21st - Mystery Snail

He's not a mystery, that's just what they're called. Look it up. :) (They're also called apple snails.)

I just got this little guy today, to help clear the tank of algae. Unfortunately, it has become a problem. :(

The last time I had one of these, he grew to darn near fist size! This one is about 1 1/2 inches in length, so far. My daughter picked out a yellow one, but they also come in black. Yellow is easier to see against the black background of the tank.

Yes, I know we're back to my fish tank, I just didn't do anything of interest today, so this is what you all get. Sorry. :)
