Gonna just go ahead a say it…I kinda phoned in today’s picture. I was getting ready to leave school tonight (around 8:00 pm) and realized I hadn’t taken a picture today. Crap! If it gets dark, my options get really diminished because I’m not working with a flash right now. I started wandering the halls again, and ran into a bulletin board framed in these patches. Ta-Da! :) Done!
Some other random thoughts of the day:
I’m really enjoying this creative side of me. I used to be really opposed to digital photography, (“Film or nothing!”) but I gotta give it credit now. I’m able to take HUNDREDS of pictures a day if I wish vs. worrying about the cost of developing my film.
Down side to all this…organization. Seriously. I’ve spent hours, and I mean HOURS, trying to figure out the best way to organize all the photos I’ve been taking. Add to that the constant updates to Facebook, Flickr, and now my blog.
I hope I don’t sound like I’m complaining. I don’t mean to. It’s just…time consuming. Some of it I really enjoy, while some of it is just work. I’m really enjoying the creative side of digitally altering my photos. I’ve created some really dramatic, off the wall pictures, and I love it! :)
Thanks again for joining me in this journey. I started this blog for myself, but I’m really enjoying the fact that others like it too! :)
So thank you.

Its good to hear you are enjoying the digital stuff too. I’ve loved looking at all your outtakes on FB and the altered stuff is very cool : )

I’ve always been intrigued by 365 day projects – given that my attention span peaks at about 5 minutes…but they seem like a good way to develop discipline and momentum. It will be fun for you to look back at 365 and see what has changed. For organizing, I always rely on assigning keywords to each image, so that a search within e,g, Picasa, Adobe Bridge or Lightroom will quickly find what I need. Hope this helps.

Great idea and thank you! I’m excited for both the journey and the memories.
