MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Well folks, I can't remember who mentioned this, but the idea is to take one photo a day every day this year and have a flickr (or such like) collection.
I've started mine but to be honest it isnt that interesting a mere 2 days in to 2009. However, although it may be deadly dull for others, I think it would make quite a nice momento to look back on and see all the things I've done.
I know it's Jan 2nd but I guess you dont have to go 1st jan - 1st jan, just do 365 days, or switch to the gregorian calendar or such like.
Anyone else up for this??
Oh God, I can see it now, 360 days woth of photos of a car park in gibralter and 5 from a cult camp in burma!
can't I just take that many in one day as usual ??
I should really get around to doing something like this - not quite managed to get myself sorted out yet this year (desktop PC needs set up, and need to find Lightroom to install back on the laptop too).
Probably just start trying to do that with ma blog like.
How do i get the "flickr" and then be able to put pics onto the forum.
you need [url= http://www.blipfoto.com/home.php ]blipfoto[/url]
there are a few of us on there.

Your cutting down then?
I hope that cellphone photos count!
I hope that cellphone photos count!
My own take on this is that Any photo counts - Digi SLR, Compact, Cameraphone, Film, Plate Camera, Pinhole - even at a push X-Rays (could be a useful way to fill an otherwise photo-free day) 🙂
Bluddy hell RD...now I NEED a hot chocolate with cream on top!! 🙄 😀
i dunno how anyone can eat/drink that bleuurgh!
Yummy, as long as it's proper cream and not that plastic stuff out of a can!
My year so far and I have to admit there is a lot of scope for things to get a tad more exciting really, if I am honest.

i don't plan to 'star' in any of mine though, more about my year than what i look like/wear everyday

You may want to check this group out which I have just discovered. It is more about creativity than diary type stuff

Did you know that the Dutch word for whipped cream is "slagroom"?
No?
Well you do now.
Yes, captain I did. And the word for book shop is boghandel.
Actually on second thoughts, that's Danish!
It's boekhandel in dutch!
Comes of living in so many places!!
Well folks I have just started a new Flickr Group if anyone wants to join in the fun!
[url] http://www.flickr.com/groups/onephotoeveryday/ [/url]
i have taken the plunge
And Doodlesac is German for Bagpipes.....
I've just joined up as well, expect a load of crap over the next 12 months.
I'll post mine up as soon as I've got another set up an running, as I've got to join as a pro and pay up first 🙁
Amazing - 3 people already! Well this will be a bit of a slow burner I feel - sure there will be quiet periods but i am sure there will be times in the year when the photos and stories get really interesting. We shall see huh?
I've just added my first 3 now to think about today's picture.
a slow burner...like a whole year you mean? 😉
Just posted an "End to Christmas"
Well now we are up to 4 members!!!! So I reckon that at least every week or so there will be something interesting happening with one of us don't you think? I am going to enjoy the project anyway 😀
I have joined the group simon, been looking for one to join since i started taking my photo's
here's mine
[url= http://www.flickr.com/photos/stuartmcintosh/sets/72157612057634459/ ]not great, but i'm having fun[/url]
Great stuff folks - up to 6 people now in our group. I'll look fordward to looking at the pics and seeing what is happening with everyone!
Apparently, something that sounds like 'Gary Neville' means bucket, in Moroccan.
Well that's today's photo done via blackberry camera. I will have to really think after just a few weeks as to how to vary the pics each day!
Oh and 7 members so we are really motoring.
Maybe some STW fat club members could join and post a photo a week say of their leaner meaner bodies : 0
just taken mine, can't upload til tonight though
Mine's done and posted up for the day.
I'm finding it a nice distraction during the working day today to think about "the" shot.
Glad I joined up now.....
Forget Flick$.... post here 🙂

Looks like you're not the only ones with this idea: [url] http://www.alastairhumphreys.com/2009/01/project-365/ [/url]
I have to ask - Simon, why do you like taking photos of your self so much?
(I pissed myself at your Flickr photo-a-day page!)
he's very handsome
He can look in a mirror to see that. Why the photos though?
Just joined too! Meant to when I first saw thread, gives me an excuse to play with my 1st DSLR, though I reckon there will be several dodgy one's from the phone to make it every day. Have missed 2nd/3rd already!

I like photos with people in but dont have any friends down here. Just a few colleagues really oh and Roper doesnt like having his pic taken when out riding. You dont have to look at my ugly mug you know - there are many more beautiful people on flickr 😀 For the record, I do realise I am no Brad Pit, Keanau Reeves or Justin Timberlake. I don't believe I have any misguided delusions of adequacy in that area.

Would you prefer photos like these (also taken today?)

Just joined the group, using my helmet cam for pictures atm, so erm..yeah the quality is interesting.
Boba Fatt - That's a very nice turntable you have there! Technics 1200 mk5?
From my morning ride - today.

Simon - yes! Nothing to do with not having you in them, but those 2 pics are much better photographs. Especially the 2nd one.
Its only day 11 but the motivation is disappearing...

I've just joined the [i][url= http://www.flickr.com/groups/onephotoeveryday/ ]One photo every day 365[/url][/i] group on Flickr - I'm modalshift on there.
I'm enjoying the challenge, although I've found it much harder to get decent pictures this weekend in the grey murky light than it was last week with the freezing cold and the clear skies. Anyway, I'm hoping to keep going for the year - it can only help me get better!
I love the sky rays Simon, but is it too boring to ask for the horizon to be level ?

I was at a customer nearby.
I post on a site that has people putting up a picture a day, not necessarily taken that day as some show a group of photos from a day out, spread over a few days.
Some great photos get posted there, It's called [url= http://www.aminus3.com ]aminus3.com[/url] if anyone is interested.
