Many years ago, I participated in a photography prompt class with Tracey Clark though the Big Picture Classes. I happened on an Instagram post by Tracey and signed up for Picture Plenty--a photo prompt a day for November as well as a class site to share and comment on others' photos. As the title of the class suggests, the prompts were oriented toward expressing gratitude and acknowledging abundance. Her prompts were thoughtful, and inspiring. I created a new, small gratitude journal for one of the prompts, and it's been good to be back writing down my daily expressions of gratitude.
I thought I'd share a few of the photos with the prompt titles.

A lovely community developed on the site for the class, and the prompts were so interesting and thoughtful, Tracy started asking me about them every morning. Just as I was contemplating how to continue a photo-a-day through December, Tracey opened up at new class: Picture the Holiday. I'm quite sure I took a much earlier ideation of that class, but I'm grateful to have another month where paying attention inspires both gratitude and appreciation for the little things.
