Photo-a-Day - 12: 11 o'clock & Photo-a-Day - 13: kitchen

Well, I actually did take photos on Wednesday and Thursday for the June: Photo-A-Day challenge, but due to the fact that a) I had to travel 250 km to and from a meeting on Wednesday night and b) my internet access has been very intermittent at home of late, I am just now posting for Day 12 and Day 13. I am so far behind with everything - with life in general - that I think I actually might be first again!

As I said, I had to travel the 250 km (give or take) from Brandon, MB to Winnipeg, MB for a meeting on Wednesday. I missed my chance at 11 o'clock a.m. to snap a candid shot, but I diligently watched the clock on our truck as my fiance did the driving so that I would be ready when 11 o'clock p.m. rolled around. As you can see, in the lower left corner, this shot was taken at 11:01. I love the reflection of the dash in the window and the fact that you can see the highway's yellow line. The tail and headlights of other vehicles doing some late night traveling is a nice touch as well.

This one is pretty self-explanatory except for the fact that I used the "cartoonify" feature on my photo editing software to give it a slightly different look. The cookie jar (doll face) has been in my family for a few generations now. She isn't really usable because her seal is non-existent, but she sure is cute to look at!
