My Own Personal 365 Project

Day 2 - 4/23/09 - Katherine's freckles

The Canuck, the wonderful spouse of The Clam (I actually know these people's names, but we all have two personae - our blog persona and our true identities on Facebook, and etiquette dictates that when you're in one digital sphere, ya gotta use the right name), started his own 365 Project - take a picture, every day, for a year. And post that picture each day.
Now, let me just say - The Canuck's stuff is gooooood! He has a great eye and then does funky post-processing that I am going to steal from him as soon as he teaches me how to do it (are you listening, son?). Go check it out and tell me the guy isn't une artiste, comme ils disent.

But - it has inspired me and so I started the same. It's only Day Two but I invite you to follow each day. Better still, start your own - and let me know about it! I get a kick out of seeing (a) other parts of the worlds where (b) my friends live.

Also, I like a challenge, so feel free to say, "Hey, lady! Try this - today you have to post something in black-and-white!" or "Feet! Today the topic is feet!" Feel free to give me ideas.
Taking a picture a day is not all that hard, even if it is only to catch a shot of your feet in the shower, what you're eating for lunch, who's walking past your window, etc. It will interesting to look back as time progresses and watch a year unfold.

Digi,

Yer makin' me blush here! Thanks for the compliments! I'd be more than happy to pass to teach you about the post-processing I do.

I really like the idea of having a challenge from the readers - it can force you to think about and look at the world in new and different ways (always helpful for a photographer).

I think Digi should get a shot of Future Fr. Patrick's remarkable ghost-seeing eye(s). :-)
