Happy March 1st!

I personally love the month of March for two reasons. The first is that I celebrate my birthday in March and the second is that spring will arrive this month. These are both great reasons to get together with friends to celebrate! Which brings me to the announcement of our new One Word for the month of March, which is gather.

During the shorter, colder days of winter it often seems easier to snuggle into our routine and spend more time at home. And while moments spent alone or with immediate family is always important, it’s also lovely to connect with old friends and meet new people along the way. So as spring approaches, we encourage you to make an effort this month to have some face-time with the friends who just “get you”. Or gather up a group of photography lovers like yourself and enjoy being the in the company of like-minded people. 

We all have to admit, as much as we love to gather here online (and we really really love it!) nothing beats gathering in real life. And since we’re on the subject, it seems like a great time to announce our 2012 Shutter Sisters Oasis gathering. All the details, like when registration will open, will be shared in the near future, but for now just the thought of gathering again with our fellow shutter sisters is enough. Start packing your bags!

And as you gather, take the time to document some of those sacred moments and share your images with us all month long in our One Word Project Pool on Flickr (tag your One Word photos this month with the following: owp, gather, march). Your photo may be featured here!

  3. Yup, March is a winner. A b-day here too =) Spring too and we always seem to get a surprise snow right around my b-day. Oh, and like that (just snapped my fingers), my calendar for March is already filling up!

  8. I don't have a 'gather' photo yet but I'm doing my gathering by initiating a photography club at work. Met with the 'higher ups' about a week ago and the first 'gathering' is scheduled for April. Truly hope this gathering gets off the ground but, should it not, I will gather the like-minded together and we will be an informal but fun gathering! 🙂
