December got away from everyone – right? Then you pressed your photo shutter and the world is racing through January. Time, I thought for the first photo roundup of 2021. Then I realised that December 2020 had been completely overlooked – yikes.
Let’s be positive. The upside is that you get to catch up on the photo posts you missed over the past two months at Dash Kitten. They are all corralled here on one place, thanks to the Pet Parade with Bionic Basil and Barking from the Bayou.

52 Assignments – Instagram
This is a fun and long term learning project for Dash Kitten and its readers. Each week I aim to try one of the chapters in the book ’52 Assignments – Instagram Photography’, by Adam Juniper.

I reported on my first challenge here too.
