Pull up a chair and grab a coffee.<\/p>\n<p>Curious about project 365?  It&#8217;s quite simple, really.  Take a picture each day for a year.  I post mine to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/postcardsfromthemothership\/\">Flickr <\/a>and to this blog, but I have a friend who is doing her 365 on her own, just for the sake of doing it.  You don&#8217;t need a fancy camera, you don&#8217;t need to be a good photographer&#8230; you just need to take a picture each and every day for an entire year.  Sound too ambitious?  What about a Project 52, a photo each week for a year?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a simple concept, but deceptively difficult!  There will be many days when you don&#8217;t want to take a picture, many days when you are sick to death of the very sight of your camera.  But for all the occasional irritation and frustration, I have to say it&#8217;s been a wonderful adventure for me, and I&#8217;m so glad I decided to try it.  183 days down, 182 to go!<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in knowing more about my 365 project, you can read more about it on my <a href=\"http:\/\/danigirl.ca\/blog\/project-365\/\">365 page<\/a>, or on the <a href=\"http:\/\/danigirl.ca\/blog\/2009\/02\/02\/an-old-blog-a-new-project\/\">first post<\/a> I wrote about the project.  The full set of pictures so far is also on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/postcardsfromthemothership\/sets\/72157612834173964\/\">Flickr<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Each week I write a post featuring the pictures I&#8217;ve taken, with a few thoughts on what went well or poorly that week, what challenged or inspired me, or the technical aspects of some of the photographs .  You can read them in the <a href=\"http:\/\/danigirl.ca\/blog\/category\/project-365\/\">Project 365 category<\/a>.  I&#8217;ve also started writing a few posts to share the things I&#8217;m learning about photography, and you can read those in the <a href=\"http:\/\/danigirl.ca\/blog\/category\/photography\/the-family-photographer\/\">Family Photographer<\/a> category.<\/p>\n<p>There are some great groups on Flickr if you&#8217;re interested in trying a 365 project of your own.  I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;d&#8217;ve made it this far if it weren&#8217;t for the inspiration and support from my friends in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/groups\/365community\/\">365 Community<\/a>, and there&#8217;s a vibrant if not a little bit loopy community of local photographers in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/groups\/ottawa-canada\/\">Ottawa <\/a>group on Flickr.
