July! Photo a Day Challenge



For the second month in a row I have completed the Fat Mum Slim photo a day challenge.  I believe the challenge was originally for Instagram users, however, as a non iPhone/iPad owner, I decided to just use the cameras I have (a Canon point and shoot and a Canon Rebel T2i.  Some days it is hard for me to remember to check the prompt, but for the most part, I have been enjoying the challenge and have been able to keep up!  Here is the list for July and my daily shot.  Thanks for looking!
