Project 365+1 - 2012

Round two...here we go!

My first attempt at Project 365 was a success!!! I took one picture a day for a whole year. Not all pictures were great but they all counted and that was the goal of the project. This year I am going for it again but with two goals and some minor changes to how I posted my pictures.

Goal: Again, I want to take a picture each day documenting my life. I got a new camera for Christmas so a second goal for me this year is to become a better photographer and learn to use the manual side of my DSLR. My third goal is to learn some new editing tricks with Photoshop (of course), SnapSeed, Picasa, and Picnik.

Posting Pics: Last year I chose to post pictures one week at a time and sometime around October my life became pretty crazy and I continued taking pictures but quit posting them for a while and ended up catching up in the last week of December (not really what I wanted to do). I also posted them so that the oldest showed up at the top of the post and the most recent was at the bottom of the post. This made sense for that post but then if you tried to scroll through from top to bottom they weren't in order.

SOOOOO....Here is the plan this year.....
  1. Take one picture a day for 366 days (it's a leap year)
  2. Use iPhone, Sony Cybershot, or New Canon EOS Rebel T3i
  3. Learn/use some new editing techniques
  4. Post pictures in my blog in descending order - posts may include just one day or many
Watch for my next post. It will be 1/1. Bet you can't guess who will be in the picture :)
