Have any of you heard about this?
The basis of this is to take a photo every day for a year to document your life. Though some people start on different days, I think it would be better to start at the beginning of a month, year etc.
After doing a little research after hearing about this on the Podcacher Podcast, I am going to get in on this one starting January 1. So, for the year 2010, I will take a photo every day. Whether it be with my Digital SLR, point-and-shoot or the camera on my phone, I am going to make a conscious effort to take at least one photo per day.
I’ll be keeping all of mine together in a set on my Flickr.
At the same time, I am also going to attempt to do the 12 of 12 each month in 2010.
The idea of this one is to take 12 photos on the 12th day of each month. I did it twice in 2009 (and I do have December left to see if I can remember) — in February and September.
But come January, I’m going to see if I can get rolling with these two photo projects. That should also mean that I’ll be able to keep my photo blog updated a bit more as I’ve slacked over the past several months on that front.
I’d love to hear if anyone else does either of these challenges or if they are interested in doing it in 2010. Maybe I could make a Flickr group for HooHaa visitors and we could all see everyone else’s work etc.
We have time, though, which is nice.
I don’t mind the idea of a journal — that is kind of what this blog is for me to an extent. But to have a daily photo will be pretty cool. Maybe I’ll even give a weekly post on here showing all the shots from the week.
Let me know if you’ll be attempting this project. It seems like a lot of fun!
Here’s a good site for more info on Project 365: Click here.
More later!
I have thought about starting that project but am not sure if I am that dedicated. We will see. Visit shuttercal.com too. It is set up like a calender and you are able to post a picture on the different days. You don’t have to start on any specific day but you are able to look at other users pictures. It is pretty neat.
Katy — Thanks for the link. I’ve bookmarked it!
I started a 365 self portrait a while ago, but failed more than half way in (twice!). It was a good challenge though – to try to keep the pics interesting.
🙂
Goodluck!
