Starting a Project 365 in Photography

This is an invitation to everyone to start a Project 365 for 2010.

A Project 365 involves taking at least one shot of any subject everyday for 365 days in 2010 and posting it anywhere like here in CebuPhoto.org, Flickr, Facebook or other sites. The ultimate goals here are to force yourself to bring and use your camera everyday, develop your eye in photography, push your skills in composition and post processing, evolve your artistic side, become a better photographer and ultimately rediscover your love for photography.

And to really force yourself into this, impose a penalty upon yourself should you miss a day whether by making up for it or to set aside 20, 50 or 100 pesos each day you miss in a fund which will be used at the end of the year to purchase more gears.

The trick here will be looking for subjects to shoot. Going weeks into this, you will find yourself taking shots of the same subjects over and over again from different angles. If you manage to overcome this initial obstacle, you are well on your way to finishing this project should you have the needed discipline and willpower for this.

For those who are going to do this I salute your dedication to improve yourselves. And for those who can’t, at least try to do a weekly project. And let us support those who do this project by commenting on their posts so they will be encouraged and in turn give us inspiration to do our own projects as well.
