First Post...

A Photo A Day*

*actual number of photos taken per day may vary

This is my new, revamped Project 365 attempt. It is also my attempt at getting over the regret I have for not finishing my original Project 365 started Christmas 2009.

This is Project 365, version 365.2.

I have an obsession with the 'Golden Birthday' so I decided that incorporating this fascination into my new project was a no brainer. 365.2 is going to start on my 23rd birthday, which is this coming February 24 (yay me!) and will end the day I turn 24 on the 24th (the Golden Birthday).

I realized after not following through with the original project that I would need some new guidelines the second time around. So here are the changes...
1. I am not photographing at a specific time. I kept getting caught up in the time the photo was taken more so than the subject matter I was photographing.
2. I am not taking just one photo a day. In an effort to reconnect with my love of photography, I am not limiting myself to 'a photo a day,' no no. Instead, I am going to take as many photos as I please and choose my favorite from the day to use as my one photo for that day. I'm hoping this will inspire me to photograph anything and everything fascinating I see throughout the day.
3. I'm blogging! Yay! Little known fact about Amy- I love to write. Again... hoping this will inspire me to follow through with this project if I get to actually write about my photographic experiences every day. Intriguing, right?

I think that pretty much sums this new project up. I would love to have TONNNSS of followers, mainly because it would make me feel good about myself (at least I'm honest) but also maybe it will inspire others to do similar projects. My last project inspired a couple of people (that I am aware of ) to start their own projects and that thrilled me! But I feel like I was restricted by simply using Facebook.

So here I am in the big wide world of blogging, a new experience for me. If you decide to follow me, bless you... I'm sure it's going to be nothing short of interesting. :)
