Hello fellow member of 365. I am new to this site and project but I figured it would be fun to see 2013 in photos and also watch my photography(hopefully) grow in the next year. I would love to see some others people's work as well so, Follow me and I'll follow you on this wonderful journey of 2013!
1) when you have a great photography day, be sure to make note of extra shots that don't get posted - you may just need one of them someday as a "filler"
2) understand that it's up to you to decide whether or not a "filler" is okay in your project
3) remember that it IS your project and you should be able to make sure that any self-imposed rules work toward your own success
4) participate in anything and everything you can find the time for on the discussion boards!
5) The camera settings challenges might be of special interest in helping you progress with greater familiarity with your camera.
6) The weekly theme challenges (posted by our fearless leader Ross Scrivna) are a great jumping off point and can take you in marvelous directions . . . don't forget to follow the tag for these themes so you can see what others are doing.
7) Some weekly recurring discussion/posting threads that are grand for learning: "Your Favorite Fav of Someone Else", "Your Favorite Picture of your Project for the week of. . .", "Your Favorite B&W for the week of. . .", etc. These usually post on Fridays of each week.
8) The Get-Pushed challenges may seem overwhelming to participate in at first, but there is NO better learning experience, in my opinion. . .don't hesitate to tell your get-pushed partner if you're a newbie or need to soften a challenge that appears too hard. Everybody on this site without exception that I've seen is interested in helping!
9) Follow people and comment on their shots - no matter how many followers they might already have, you will learn so much along the way!
10) HAVE A BLAST!!
Hey there! I'm new too and will happily follow people back.
Does anyone here do mobile uploads? I was able to upload one photo but my browser won't let me click "upload photo". When I click "you", it just automatically starts loading that page before I can click "upload photo". Strange.
Would be good to get some ideas. willing to follow people and try some different shots out to what i normally take. Im from the U.K in suffolk. please follow me on my journey... look forward to hearing from people.
@lyno Thanks! These are great suggestions. I just started on Jan 1st and am amazed at the rich discussions, suggestions, etc. Right now I've just been 'lurking' and I'm already learning a lot.
