Hello. I joined this wonderful website to give my creative side a hand. I see a lot of amazing photos. Please give me some suggestion on how and what to take a picture of everyday. This is going to be a challenge for me.
It really depends on what your interests are and what you are trying to accomplish. Some folks use this as a way to document a year. Some are trying to improve their photography and/or learn new techniques. I think the best way might be to just start taking pictures, look at them later on and think about what you might have done differently, either in composing the shot or the settings.
I suggest trying some of the challenges, including the weekly themes. I have tried the monthly challenges too. This month, I am catching up with theme shots for the photo club. I decided to do my own challenge, which is capturing October and/or Autumn in my corner of the world. In doing this, I can work on the photo club's leaf theme. Being creative depends upon what your interests are and what you want your 365 project to be. Have fun exploring your creativity through the 365 project.
Thank you Michael and Kathryn. I will look into the different challenges and weekly/monthly themes. I was thinking we had a theme for each day. This is day 2 for me so I will continue to search the website and try to come up with a plan to enhance my skills. Thank you :)
I've never had any luck with the themes, alot of people do. When I started this project I just aimed for a photo a day, as kind of a journal. Then I started taking more and more photos every day because I wanted to improve. Now I carry my camera with me everywhere and I take at least 30, but up to 400 photos a day, with an average of 100.
The longer you do it, the easier it becomes. I promise. Welcome to 365!
