Day 50 of 365 days. Day 50 and I am amazed I am still going strong. I thought for sure I would have missed a day by now. Went to a baseball game tonight with Steph’s family. We wanted to treat her Dad to thank him for all the work he’s helped us with on…
Day 49 of 365 days. Steph and I invited friends over tonight to play Scrabble. Sadly we didn’t win, but it presented a nice change up for my daily portrait. Had a really bad night with it. I’ve never played and gotten so many vowels and so few consonants. This is me putting my starting…
Day 48 of 365 days. Won my nightly poker game in record time and then I was just sitting up watching TV (I don’t sleep much) and when midnight hit, I decided to get a jump on todays self portrait. I was especially eager since what I had planned seemed like it was going to…
Day 47 of 365 days. Initially, I had another idea for today. An original one, not a copy cat, but then I got all wrapped up in dealing with an issue on my blog. For those who don’t know, I’m a pretty avid blogger, and I write about a whole bunch of things, from my…
8-19-06 Originally uploaded by chrismaverick. I was going to wait til after work to rant on this when I could sit down and really think it through to get down a good 1000 words of free flowing hostility, but since I’ve already addressed it a few times in sonbanon’s post and its the superhot topic…
Day 46 of 365 days. I actually had a half baked idea of doing this a couple weeks ago, but I never really knew where to go with it. Then randomly, sadandbeautiful went and made her own version last week which impressed me quite a bit and made me want to make sure that I…
Day 45 of 365 days. As much as I like the 400D better than my old G3, I gotta say that its a lot easier to take a self portrait with the older camera. I never really used the LCD screen when photographing other stuff, but it was always useful if I wanted to shoot…
Day 44 of 365 days. And now continuing the great Maverick family tradition of Sunday morning breakfast and football. Every Sunday, during football season I invite my friends over to have breakfast and watch the Steelers game. Today is actually the 3rd week of the NFL season, but the first week the Steelers had a…
Went over to Geoff and Tracey’s house to take pictures of their new baby. I don’t really love this one, but she had her eyes open, and since she pretty much never does that (at least as far as I could tell in the couple hours I was there) I figured this one was a keeper

Went over to Geoff and Tracey’s house to take pictures of their new baby. This is Geoff holding her in his hands. She’s tiny. I mean, she’s 8 days old, so I guess that’s pretty much to be expected. But still.
Day 43 of 365 days. And speaking of not knowing how to use the new camera… Took the 400D to my friend Gina’s yoga studio to take some pictures of her doing pregnancy yoga for her (and give me the chance to become more familiar with it). Took a whole bunch (including all of the…
Alexis Bledel You’re over 18, right?!?!So beststephi and I have were watching Dateline NBC To Catch a Predator tonight. In the six specials they have produced so far, it has become one of my very favorite shows. For those who haven’t seen the show before, it works like this Perverted Justice, an online watchdog group…
Day 42 of 365 days. Introducing the camera with which I will be taking the majority of the rest of the pictures in this project. The Canon EOS 400D Digital Rebel XTi. This picture was of course not taken with it, and instead was taken with my old Canon G3. This is the first Digital…
Day 41 of 365 days. After work today I finished winterizing the swimming pool in my backyard. Its always a sad day because it kind of signifies the definitive end of summer for me (though in actuality, its been too cold to use the pool for weeks now). I really wish I had had an…
