A 365 Day Photography Challenge

What a 365 Day Photography Challenge? Seriously?! Yes. 
Beginning Sunday January 20th I am going to embark on a photography challenge.  I have attempted this before but unfortunately I did not make it all the way through. I had been foolishly aimless in my attempts and I believe that was my downfall. This time I have a plan which will guide me through the year. Theoretically anyway! Curious? Yes, yes you are.
My Goal is 365 Photos, one for each day of the year. Yeah it sounds kind of… well? Typical.  So I am adding a twist. Instead of photographing a different subject every day, I have compiled a list of themes that will change every week. 52 themes, 365 days. Yeah, I want to push my creativity to a new extreme. I would like to learn to find the box and then look outside of it without having to think about it. I think this will help.

Do you know what the only thing that could possibly make this 365 Day Photography Challenge more enjoyable is?  It would be amazing if you, my readers, would Join me in my quest.  You wouldn’t have to post every day only once a week. Or If that is still a little too much for you? Whenever you find the time. It really doesn’t have to take much time. It can take anywhere from a couple of minutes to a couple of hours.
The photographs do not have to be perfect or professional. A snapshot from your cell phone would be completely acceptable.  This is not a contest!!  It is purely for enjoyment and maybe a few little learning purposes.  I am really excited about this!

OK, If you are interested in joining me, you don’t have to sign up or anything. Well you may need to “like” my fan page. Simply take a picture and:

  • Upload it to My Fanpage: Here.

Or

  • Link it in a comment on the appropriate blog post.
    I will ask that if you link it to a blog post, you link it to the one posted at the beginning of the week that contains the week’s theme.

I will post the next week’s theme every Saturday Evening along with my last photo of the week. Since this Sunday will be starting the first week I will post the theme Saturday afternoon to give you a head start.  I hope you will join me in my 365 Day Photography Challenge. I would love to see what your photos look like, and I think we will have a lot of fun!!

365 Day Photography Challenge Continues

I realize I have been slacking on the 365 Day Photography Challenge. I really would like to get it moving again. So, instead of trying to back track lets start with a whole new theme.

365 Photography Challenge

I figure it’s pretty self explanatory.  Get up as close as you can to your subject.  Be creative and have fun! Isn’t that the whole point in this challenge?

365 Day Photography Challenge : Week Seven

Week Seven of My 365 Day Photography Challenge! I have to admit, I am really proud of myself for getting this far! Now on to this week’s theme!

365 Day Photography Challenge

We are soon entering a new season. Spring. Spring represents new life, birth, change and many more things. New life can be interpreted in many different ways:

  • Newborn babies or animals
  • Budding flowers
  • Trees sprouting new leaves
  • Transformation
  • Any number of outside of the box concepts

Be creative! I can’t wait to see what you come up with! I will post today’s photo as soon as I have a chance.  By the time this posts we will have been out of town all week and I can only imagine that chaos will follow our return as we try to get settled back in to normal life!

365 Day Photography Challenge : Days Twenty Nine through Thirty Three

I apologize for being somewhat lax in my photo posting during the past couple of weeks of our 365 Day Photography Challenge.  I spent all of last week rushing around to prepare for our trip to the north and it took so much time and effort that I really did not have the ability to photograph and post. I am however trying to make up for lost time. I am currently in the midst of a little downtime for the evening.

Around The House

Day Twenty Nine:

365 Day Photography Challenge : Week Six

Welcome to Week Six Of the 365 Day Photography Challenge!
Fair warning, as I mentioned in my last post My Husband and I will be out of town this Sunday and next Sunday. So to prevent getting backlogged in posts and having to catch up later on I am scheduling the next two themes to post on their appropriate days. When I return I will make a big post or two. I WILL have my camera with me. I don’t want to get behind on this challenge. So don’t you get behind either! Stay motivated, take your photos and post them on my fan page or on this blog post!
This week’s Theme is:
365 Day Photography Challenge
Beauty:

 

  • A Beautiful Person
  • A Beautiful Thing
  • Something that is beautiful in nature
  • The quality present in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind, whether arising from sensory manifestations (as shape, color, sound, etc.), a meaningful design or pattern, or something else (as a personality in which high spiritual qualities are manifest).

Please forgive my lack of a photo for today. I plan to post all of this week’s images into a blog post when we get back!

365 Day Photography Challenge : Day Twenty Eight

Here we are, Day Twenty Eight of the 365 Day Photography Challenge! We have gotten through almost an entire month of this challenge, so exciting! My husband and I are getting ready to go on a trip, not so much a pleasure ride but I hope to find some relaxation somewhere during the time we are gone. In preparation for our impending departure I have been cleaning. I am determined to leave the house in as close to immaculate condition as I possibly can.

365 Day Photography Challenge : Week Four

YAY! Week Four of my 365 Day Photography Challenge!  With the exception of my difficulty to keep up this week, I am really happy with how this is working out!  I have noticed myself panicking when I don’t know exactly what I am going to take for my photo that day. All in all it seems to be going fairly smoothly! Now,  on to this week’s theme. Are you ready?

Taking into consideration that Thursday is Valentine’s Day, this week’s theme is…
365 Day Photography Challenge

Romance:

  • a novel or other prose narrative depicting heroic or marvelous deeds,
  • the colorful world, life, or conditions depicted in such tales.
  • a romantic spirit, sentiment, emotion, or desire.

Remember to take your time, don’t stress out and having fun is important as well!  I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with this week!
I will post my photos for today as soon as I possibly can!
