Really don't think I can manage a 365, but surely I can do a 52. :shrug:
The only extra rules I'm setting myself are below....
Actually, I'm not playing by my rules any more - thought I may find myself reluctant to swap lenses, but that is proving not to be the case; and to post an image I'm happy with, seems to need just a bit of PP each week. I think the shot is more important than following rules!

I've already taken SIN, as you can see I'm doing this to try to expand my mindset and to think outside the box a bit more, and not go for an obvious choice.

Taken with my new 35mm f/1.8. At 1.8 to try to get shallowest DOF possible, which I then exaggerated in GIMP, and desaturated the red of the C and AC buttons to avoid them drawing attention.
Right - I'm committed, I'll pop into a few others threads next.
The only extra rules I'm setting myself are below....
- to make sure I use all 3 lenses I have - I've decided that any rolling 4 week period will use each one at least once.
- And also that at least 1 in 4 weeks will have no PP applied, beyond straightening and cropping in Picasa.
