Recent participation in some photography forums has piqued an interest in doing a Project 365. Photography has been a hobby on and off for over 40 years and in the last 18 months my interest has intensified. So I've decided to jump in, give it a shot (no pun intended) and see if I can shoot every day for a year.

My expectations for this project are that it will provide motivation to expand my skills both behind the camera and in post-processing and provide a vehicle for experimentation. My photog pal Doug has been a great mentor, so I want to publicly say thanks; this is your fault (kidding of course).

It is going to be a learning experience, so any and all comments, critiques and encouraging words are welcome.

Thanks for viewing.

One Shot

9/25/10 - Day 281
We boarded the plane at 2:00pm Saturday and didn't arrive in Frankfurt until 5:30am Sunday morning. This the one shot I got off on Saturday!

This shot also qualifies for the Daily Shoot assignment #314 on guilty pleasures. Even though business hasn't been great the last couple of years, Lin & I have done some European travel anyway. Do we feel guilty? Perhaps a little. Is the travel pleasurable? Absolutely!

Homeward Bound

8/13/10 - Day 238
On the way home from San Diego I was able to shoot wide for today's Daily Shoot assignment #271: "Make a photograph using wide focal length. Zoom or prime or iPhone cameras all qualify for going wide today."  I am so used to zooming in on my aerial shots, this assignment forced me to stay wide and compose an expansive shot.

7/28/10 - Day 222
A typical day of motion...shot for today's Daily Shoot #255: "The world is always in motion. Make a photo that conveys a bit of your own motion to your viewer."   Chasing the sunset on the way home from Boston.

View from 2A


5/17/10 - Day 150
I was shooting out the window, through the clouds, on approach today and looked up from the camera.  Interesting profile and lighting made this image better than the typical "out the window" airplane shot.

Upgrade


3/25/10 - Day 97
Got an email today that my upgrade came through.  I hadn't had any earlier opportunity to shoot today but was able to get this shot off looking back from my seat right before they shut the cabin door.  Definitely beats that middle seat in the rear that was on my reservation!
