It all started with talk on a forum that I visit (go here.) It was December 2009, and I was eager to tackle this project. A photo a day for an entire year, doesn't seem hard, but let me tell you, it's a lot more work than you think it is.
Don't get me wrong I have thoroughly enjoyed doing the project. I had plan to do a photo book of all the images. But I have decided against that. I'm still going to do a photo book but it wont be of every photo of the year. Why? Well for the following reasons:
- I missed 4-5 days
- Approx 150 are ripper/excellent/hang on the wall images
- Approx 100 are snap shots
- Approx 50 are crap, had to take a photo for the day shots. Shots that I'm not really impressed with.
So My 365 day project photo book will be the best off the entire year.
Doing this project I have learnt a lot about my camera. I mean I'm still learning now (i just learnt something new the other day).
I've also learnt a lot about editing, and finding my editing style.
So will I be doing a 365 day project for 2011. Well that would be a BIG FAT NO!!!!! But I've already mentioned this before. I plan to do a 52 week project, and I also plan on having themes. I think I have mentioned these themes before but I will mention them again, also for my reference.
- Miles
- Kayla
- Me (self portrait)
- Macro
- Random
Why these themes? Because they suit my lifestyle, and that more me is what is going to make it work.
