P365

I tried this year to do Project 365. My attempt didn't go very well. I gave up completely a month or two into it. Actually, I think my problem was more that I forgot about it, forgot my camera, etc. I love the idea, though, and had fun the days I did participate, so I am going to give it another try. I am going to give myself a few guidelines:

1. Don't expect the pictures to be perfect. Capture the memory, don't worry if it's going to be a perfect shot, too grainy, poor lighting.
2. Don't stress if you miss a day, just pick up where you are and continue.
3. Take your camera E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E. At least this year I have my iPhone, which helps, and I can upload those pictures very easily and quickly.

I really want to stick with this and have a wonderful record of 2009. Won't a collage of the 365 days(or whatever I end up with) be a neat thing to see? I should gather all the days I did manage to get a picture and see what it looks like. Maybe that will be a bit of motivation for the upcoming year.

Anyone want to give it a try?

I tried to do it this year too and didn't make it past June and my coverage before that was fairly spotty. :-( I LOVE the idea but in practice I realize it's really a gargantuan task. I always got behind on either the taking or the uploading end, and then when I finally got behind on both, I caved. I would love to do it again but I haven't decided. Go Jen!

I think I am going to try that. Try being the operative word here.

Hope you have a good 2009!

that is such a graet idea... maybe for 2010 I will jump into it, as I have missed so much already this year....
