I'm going to throw this one out there.
Why are you doing a 365 this year?
I'm doing one as a means to improve my photography, learn new techniques and to get me using my camera more! I'm enjoying my photography a lot more because of it and I feel like I've picked up plenty of new techniques. I've seen some improvement to my work, and now I feel like my equipment is holding me back more than anything! My 365 is running the rules that I can only use a DSLR (unless I break something), and the photo must be taken on the correct day, even if it isn't processed or put online that day.
At the end of the 365, I plan on making a book, so I can look back on it in the future, and hopefully, see how well I've improved from this 365 experience.
So there we go, thats my reason, what's yours?
i'm doing it as i'm stuck in an endless time loop .. constantly repeating the same day over and over.. i shoot a different shot each day hoping in vein that someone or something will end this torment for me
Let me know where you live and I will relieve you of your camera gear
It's that simple....
Oh, wait you shoot Cannon
You're not the only one Sam.... I'm 90% close to stopping!..... Not because of the photography side but the 'having to' .... I want to enjoy it...
Yep, this.
I started this wanting to shoot more. I'm worried I'm going to finish it and not touch the camera again for a long time.
I like mouldy cheese
Puts hairs on your chest!
Who said this challenge was easy....
Man up people and snap what you see - I for one don't always comment but it's soooo interesting to see the the views of others lives...so if for no other reason than to satisify my nosey curiosity - KEEP SNAPPING AND CARRY ON!!!!
MMMmmmmmmm cheese.....
And thanks for the motivation Jeff and (I think ) Kev!
It's impossible to take a photo with zero thought.
All of mine are taken with zero thought .... Well...zero sanity..???!!

True But some days you have a brilliant idea in your head and make a real effort otherdays you just snap and think - Pah that'll do
My brain hurts from trying to work out if that's the same....or not?
It's impossible to take a photo with zero thought.
I also have 37 photos of floors, skies and god only know what when my camera decides to do the thinking for me.....I'm on a very individual journey!!
I think you'l find it is possible and I have about 40GB to prove it - and that's JPeg!!!! :razz:
I thought for the the other 30 MB of 'stuff'!!

I think my point was why does that need to have a special name or tag - surely a photo is a photo is a photo. It's still a record of something, it's still an insight in to your life in some way. I just never occurs to me to call a photo a filler....
Ok that's me done ... I can't shake the 'have to' feeling and I find I'm not taking as many photos as I used to before I started as my head is filled with the one 365 shot!
I want to go back to enjoying going out because I want too NOT have too and not wander the house thinking 'oh that'll have to do'
I shall still lurk here and support you all tho :-D
That is a bloody shame T , I shall miss your shots on your challenge
No doubt I'll sound pious .. And maybe even privately flamed ... But I have not subscribed to the mass indoctrination of a photo a day..I might manage it...but if I have a bad day or the NWO wants me to drive on the right side of the road for a laugh...then I'll forgo that opportunity and catch up tomorrow...photos are going round in my head hourly..what can I do..generating an idea for yesterday as it didn't look right....
And I don't have this itch of I have to take photo...BUT... I do have a problem now having done these projects so long (imho!) .... Is that I struggle to take a Facebook photo....by that I mean a snapshot.. I can't just squeeze one off...take one for the team.. It has to be composed. Lighting..angles.. Smiles..can you see me.. And the moment passed minutes ago... I got irate when someone took my photo...for a laugh.. I knew it would end up on fb so I asked for a reshoot . Can we not do this.. Or over here where there isn't things behind me... These projects ruin lives..... Admittedly no moreso than the corrupt governments of the world being puppets for the rich and those of the NWO ... But that's another story...
But I will also add... A photo a day is hard? ..try the photo an hour... In a day.. I consider none of my photo24 shots a filler.. I was insane by the end of the day though so no operating heavy machinery or flying interstellar craft to a lonely planet to discover the origin of man...facepalm .. We're IN the matrix!....
