Week 4: Tired

I took this picture on a Saturday morning. At 5:52. Corey was up early to go snowboarding, and I have been popping awake at like 3am for no reason for the past few days. Tiiiiired. This picture makes me feel sleepy.

Also, I'm going to change next weeks theme from "sleep" to "circles." I thought this week's theme was sort of tough/boring enough, and sleep is basically the same thing, right? Another weekly project I've seen recently did circles, and that sounds more fun.

Week 3: Macro

For all the expensive photography equipment I've acquired over the past year, none of it helps me with this week's theme. I can't do macro photography. Sad face. Enter: old point and shoot. It's the best I can do (until I get a macro lens. *sigh* There's always something to add to the list...). Anyway, here's a seashell.

Week 2: Breakfast

This week's theme is a little boring for me, only because I eat one of the same 2 things for breakfast every day. I figured this would be a prettier picture than a bowl of soggy grey oatmeal.

Week 1: Cold 2

We finally got a solid dump of snow. The weather was intense today, and I looked out on the freeze from behind the frosted window of my warm house.

Week 1: Cold

I call this my "Holy crap, it's friggin' FREEZING" crazy face.

Scratch That. Restart.

Project 365... right. I guess that didn't work out so well overall.

I've decided I'll start something new (and see how long it lasts this time...). I'll call it "Project 52" and it will revolve around taking photos each week around a specific theme (as put forth by a list from Digital Photography School). I'll take at least one pic a week- more if I'm inspired. I figure this is a good way to stay motivated and gain some direction to inspire ideas so I don't quit just because I have "nothing" to take pictures of. I like the interpretive nature of doing themes. Plus, it's less pressure if I don't have to post a picture every day. Setting myself up for success here, people.

I've copied the whole list into the sidebar if you want to see what kinds of themes will be coming up. The first one to start off this first week of the year is: "COLD." I haven't taken any real pictures yet, but I'll include a snapshot from our snowboarding trip last weekend since it fits the bill (and it would be pretty sad to not include a picture in the first post of this new project).


Wish me luck! (And if you have any photo goals of your own this year, let me know so I can follow along!)
