Lately I have been doing some blog spying and have come across some great blogs where people have taken a photo a day for a whole year. I really like this idea and was thinking of doing it for 2011. One I have just looked at is:
http://www.youcantbeserious.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/grateful.pdf (hope I am allowed to post the link mods!) where a woman took a photo everyday of something she was grateful for. I think this is a wonderful idea and am going to try and get it happening this year!

Anyone want to join me? If there is anyone who is keen we could possibly set up a flickr stream or if it is okay, just link to individual blogs so people can keep updated on one another. Any takers??

That's really fantastic. I had heard of the 365 project but I love the "grateful" spin on it. I don't think I have enough talent though! :cantbelieveit:Bugger!

its a great idea, but I don't think I'd get the time - I had trouble with one week of photos haha!

I started something similar start of this year... I got a good way into the year too and then one thing lead to another and somehow I just started loosing days and weeks :(

I want to start it again as of New Years though and finish it this time!! :) I think they are awesome when finished!!

I think its a great idea!!! I attempted one in the middle of the year but lost my passion.
I think the grateful idea is a fantastic one and starting at the start of the year is even better!!

I am defiantly keen! :)

I love that everyone has put their own spin on it! Do you want to still use this thread to keep everyone updated or do you think we should start another for Project 365 (no specifications!) Can't wait to get started and stickybeek at everyone elses!

Hey there!!

Sooooo is everyone busy thinking of or snapping their first shot for the year?!

I really like the idea of sharing on flickr - Its free and easy to use. That way we can comment on each others photos etc... Perhaps we could keep this thread or another one - and use to encourage one another etc??

I have decided to go with the "grateful" theme - i think its a great idea - and something i really should do more often! a great challenge imho.

Love everyones ideas and look forward to seeing everyones shots! :) :) :)

Ohhh this is a great idea and i'm going to give it a go (despite being a pretty ordinary photo taker).
I think it will certainly be a challenge, for me, and something that will be quite insightful.
I don't know if i'll last but i'll give it a red hot go.........now off to take photo 1 before the day ends.
I think i'll stick with the grateful theme :thumbsup:

Flickr- :thumbsup:

Linking to your own blogs - :thumbsdown:

Just FYI ;)


Sounds like a great idea, can't wait to see some pics! (I would join in if I had ONE photography related bone in my body, but I'm just a TERRIBLE photographer! Much to my extreme disappointment!)

I am so going to be in on this! I only have my phone with me so the first few days will have to be phone photos, but I NEED to do the 365 days of grateful to get me out of this funk!

I agree with you!!!! I think its a great idea to get out of a "Funk"


Flickr group is a GREAT idea! :)

Yep. Im going to do it for the same reasons. I feel rather bitter after a few events of the past year, and really need to get in a good frame of mind for this new year. :)

I think it is a great idea I took my first photo yesterday and will try and take one for the next 364 days :p Can't promise I'll be able to upload them every single day though. Now to work out how to open a flicker account........

Have you posted any photos yet to your feed? Maybe you are too "new"? There might be a number limit to how many pictures you can have minimum before you can join a group?
