This is a group of photos from the 'photo shoot' that I did with my cousin, Jonathan. They actually came out better than I thought! I can't wait to get them printed!- videboi@gmail.com
365::365 - Done!
>> Wednesday, April 29, 2009
Alright, so this is it! The end of my 365 project. What a ride it has been! I can't believe how fast the year has gone by. I never though I'd last more than the first couple of weeks and here I am, 52 weeks later and I've enjoyed every single day of it! It will be weird, not having to think of what I'd be taking on a daily basis, but I'm sure I'll get over it quickly!
OK so there were some days when I really couldn't be bothered, but those were the days that I pushed myself and tested my limits of my own creativity. I feel like I've gone from someone who might get a half decent photo every now and then to someone who can work out if a photo is going to be half decent before I even take it. My confidence in my own photography has grown hugely.
I am so glad that I found this project, and I am so happy about all of the support that I have gained. I have grew more confident in myself, especially in my photography. I had seen this idea floating around the internet, and I kept checking what others were posting, wondering why they would want to take a picture every single day while at the same time wondering if I could do it myself. After a couple of weeks (and some camera chaos), I took the plunge and immediately got the bug. I would find myself thinking about my photos during the day, working out what I could do, what might work, and what might make an interesting photo. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't but one thing is certain, it made me pick up a camera every single day and for that I will be forever grateful.
And so, I'd just like to take this chance to thank everyone who has supported me through my year in photography. I would never have been able to do this without you guys! I want to thank my family and friends, especially, who while they may not have really understood why I did this, they supported me nonetheless. Thank you all for helping me on my journey from day 1 to day 365. I have benefited from this project in so many ways, and I couldn't picture how my life would be without it.
THANK YOU!!
One Foot in Front of the Other
>> Tuesday, April 28, 2009
So today while we were playing outside in the boiling heat, I decided to bring my camera. Just randomly, Madison decides to just walk away and not say anything. I snapped this picture just because of the walk she was doing, she is already walking like a model (one foot in front of the other :] ). I really like the vignette that I added to this portrait because it is really strong, but it did not just create that solid black area around the edge. I really like what the vignette especially did to the shadow from the lattice. Well I hope you all had a great day, and I'll talk to you tomorrow.
PS: THE LAST DAY OF THIS 365 PROJECT IS TOMORROW!!!
Blow... and Make a Wish!
>> Monday, April 27, 2009
So today the kids decided that they wanted to try and blow the seeds off of all the flowers that they could find. I quickly thought of this two picture idea, and I really liked how it ended up. I made this using picnik.com. I have never tried anything quite like this before, and I am glad that I got to do it before my 365 project ends. I also really like how vibrant the colors ended up. Well I hope you all had a great day, and I'll talk to you tomorrow.

So today I decided to take a picture of one of the flowers that is beginning to grow around our porch. I can't believe how fast everything is changing into Spring! I just love it! I can't wait until all of the dead trees come back to life. This photo was taken with my macro filter and I just love how close it lets me get to the smallest things. This flower was probably only about an inch in diameter, and I think it looks so much bigger! Well I hope you all had a great day, and I'll talk to you tomorrow.

So today I went to a photography scavenger hunt in New Haven. It was SO much fun, and one of my friends went with me. This was the picture for "Soft Texture", and I really liked how her hair was blowing in the wind. It allowed you to just see just enough of her face to see that she was about to smell the flower. These were just some of the colorful flowers that were in the park in New Haven. I am so glad that I went, and I am SO going to do it again next year! Well I hope you all had a great day, and I'll talk to you tomorrow.
