My 2016 Journey is beginning. I feel like I’m not ready to give up just yet, so I hope you’ll join me for another 365. I found the best way to get through it is to not be too hard on myself and if I miss a day – to make it up the next day by photographing different subjects, or the same subject in a different way. I mean, it’s a massive commitment, and some days nothing will inspire you, there are days I felt like I had already photographed every single item in my house. When that happens I found choosing an object like an egg and challenging myself to shoot it 5 or 10 different ways helped so much. In the beginning I started with themes and you can always fall back on these if you need to. So please wish me luck as I do it all over again.
I started on the 1st of January and will continue weekly blogging with my circle of very talented ladies. Here is ALICIA’S week.
This is what tired and grubby looks like on the 1st January after a double sleepover

4th – A rare selfie – I grabbed her so quickly she didn’t realize what I was doing ♥.jpg)
I love weeds – they make such interesting pictures

I love seeing your beautiful baby pics and then also looking out for your blog messages and 365 photos…keep up the good work…
I hope to be inspired by trying to see your 365 blog without fail whilst I’m lying down….waiting for my knee operation…so that afterwards I have the inspiration to pick up my cameras again and get posting.
Have a wonderful 2016….

Thank you Dave – Challenge yourself to shoot something interesting from where you are sitting every day 🙂
I”m so jealous that it is summer for you! It’s cold and rainy again today 🙁 Anyway…. I love what you said about pushing yourself to find objects in your home and shooting them from multiple angles! That’s a wonderful idea to help you grow!
Congrats on the 365, and I’m glad you’re continuing!
I love the sprinkler picture, I can’t believe it was warm enough, we had snow that day! Crazy! You caught the photo with a beautiful DOF. Really gorgeous.
The photo at the beach is beautiful, her skin is all glowy, and the movement in her hair is fantastic, I can’t wait to see next week’s photos!
Aww thank you Alicia 🙂
Congrats on finishing your 365! It is such a wonderful feeling. I feel like I’m at the same place as you feeling like I need to just keep going. I love your challenge idea.
