Project 365

All in a Day Redux

25 January 2010 My 15 minutes

Whee, that was so much fun! Thanks to Alan Neal and my friends at CBC Radio Ottawa for giving me a chance to talk about my 365 project on All in a Day today! I was having quite the little moment while I was sitting in the anteroom waiting for my turn to go on, [...]

Beyond 365, erm, 366

24 January 2010 Project 365

So are you getting tired of the 365 posts yet? I’m pretty sure this will be the last one. Well, kind of. First, I wanted to share with you the very exciting (for me!) news that I’ll be on All in a Day on CBC Radio One tomorrow afternoon, talking to Alan Neal about the [...]

Project 365: Post Script (alternate title: In which she demonstrates her inability to count to 365)

22 January 2010 Project 365

Hmmm, seems a little anti-climactic to be posting about Project 365 again after my big finish on Wednesday, but there’s a couple of last little afterthoughts, as well as the pictures I took since my last update and before the big finale that never got their day in the sun. But first, you know what [...]

Project 365: Fini!

20 January 2010 Project 365

Holy crap, I did it! I’m not sure that I was convinced, back when I launched this project a year ago, that I really expected to actually finish it. And I can’t even begin to tell you how much I’ve learned. A year ago, I was using my Nikon dSLR mostly in the program modes. [...]

Project 365: The Penultimate Week!

15 January 2010 Project 365

There’s good news and bad news from the land of Project 365 this week. The good news is: next week is the big finale!! Only six days to go!! The bad new is: next week is the big finale!! Okay, not really. While I’m a little anxious about both what will happen on day 366 [...]

Project 365: In which she comes perilously close to running completely out of things to photograph

8 January 2010 Project 365

After more than 350 days of taking pictures, I’m running out of steam. I still love taking the pictures and processing the pictures and especially sharing the pictures, but I have to admit that I’m just not as keen to go out and hunt for the pictures, yanno? So most of this week’s photos were [...]

Project 365: The beginning of the end

1 January 2010 Project 365

Wow, only three weeks to go in my year of photos! A few of you have been asking what happens on day 366, and I’ve been chewing that question over myself. Back in July, or October, I might have told you enthusiastically that I couldn’t imagine a day without a picture any more, and of [...]

Project 365: Christmas Cheer and the Return of Inspiration

26 December 2009 Project 365

It’s a Christmas miracle! (Okay, maybe not so much a miracle, as a really nice Christmas treat.) Slogging through much of the last couple of weeks of the 365 project, I’d realized that I was enduring it rather than enjoying it. But my 12 Hours of Christmas photo project reawakened the joy of picture-taking for [...]

Project 365: Baby it’s cold outside!

18 December 2009 Project 365

Looking back over my year in pictures, I’m surprised to see how many of my favourite images were shot outside. There really is no substitute for natural light, I suppose. And even though the temperatures have really bottomed out in the last week, most of my pictures were in fact taken outside. The only time [...]

Project365: Bring on the Christmas pix!

11 December 2009 Project 365

In our house, the holiday season officially begins on December 4, with Beloved’s birthday. Once we have that out of the way, we can officially get on with the Christmas mania! After the mouse-poop fiasco and a good sanitizing, we decided that we love our Christmas tree too much to sacrifice it. The boys each [...]
