Jan...now you've done it. House projects. Twice as expensive and 4x as long as you'd think. I've been sidelined a lot the past year working on my backyard. Ripped out a deck and added a patio, several walkways and a fire pit. It is "almost" done.

In short, I see the photo of the week and the assignments as two very different things. I hope both continue. Assignments should challenge us whereas the photo of the weeks is more to represent the best of what we are currently shooting.

I like the longer periods for the assignment.
