So…. one Month down* and here i am…. firstly I am quite surprised to have got this far, but a few thoughts about the past month
1) Its been much harder than i thought.
Not just the going out and taking a photo, that is tough but the trying to find something new… trying to take a photo differently and then come back to find that all the pics are rubbish. The worse the photo to begin with the more post production i have to do, and to do these can be pretty time consuming.
2) If I was doing it again i would take Fridays off
3) If I was doing it again i would probably take Mondays off too
4) I leant more about my camera in the 1st 2 weeks than i have for the past year of having it
BUT, that said, I think there is probably a photography book somewhere that helpfully explains that F-Stops, Shutter Speeds and the rest are probably not best learnt on cold dark Mancunian evenings.
5) I have as much idea of what i am going to photo for the rest of the year as I had on Jan 02
ie. no idea. But there are a few options, i just got my first of two flashguns today (why two? because i spent too long on Strobist and got carried away) i have no idea about flash photography but i suppose thats the reason why i started this half-witted idea in the first place 6) if i was doing it again i would probably take wednesdays off
*ok, so technically not one month i did start late
