Day 5, and I discovered the joy of the magic monkeys and the POP POP POP Pages. My first shot was not a frog, but it was a green grasshopper POPPING out of the page while sitting on a Plumbago.
I started this post to inspire the newbies and to show the well seasoned how far they have come! Do not be discouraged, just keep snapping and posting! This is your journey! :-)
It took me 80 days to get on the page and then another three months to get there again. What is funny is the photo from the day after is my preferred favorite of the subject.
this was my first - on day 5 of the project. I only found out when someone commented and congratulated me on my pp - I wasn't sure what a pp was to start with !!
This one at the end of February last year. I was amazed it got on there, my daughter and I were curled up on the sofa and as she was lying on my arm I couldn't move very much.
I used my p&s on auto and had to guess where to aim to get the shot I wanted. I also uploaded it sooc (apart from a watermark which has since improved), I didn't expect much of a response to it never mind to make it onto PP
WOW! Loving all of these photos! :-) Keep them coming -- Your First Photo to Make the POP POP POP Page!
Thanks everyone! I hope you see a shot and there is something you want to try or experiment with in your own journey! If you haven't made the POP Page, I say keep shooting and participate on the site as much as possible. :-)
@luluwow At the top of the 365 page (after you have signed in) you will see Browse -- scroll down and hit Popular and scroll down and hit Shuffle. These are the photos that the "Magic Photo Monkeys" have picked!
This is mine. It happened on the fifth day of my project. I peaked early - it was all down hill from there. Kidding. I have made it twice more since I've been here which makes it three times in three months. Not bad, all things considered...
It was this one... it wasn't there for long though :( I wouldn't have even known if someone didn't alert me to it! I did get to see it... and lol I did a screen shot.. just for my own little keepsake.. so glad I did cos it was only like 12 hours I reckon! It was just shy of 2 months since starting my project.
This was my first to make it tothe pop page and it just goes to show that a photo does not even require to have any Fav's to make it. I was very surprised and delighted.
This is my first pic to make the PP on day 28 of my project last year. I still love it but these were the days before I knew what processing was so this is SOOC. I can see my growth in my project from this one!
to this day, this photo (which admittedly isn't a great shot) only has ONE fav. Why it made the PopPage I'll never know, but I was quite pleased nonetheless (ignorance is bliss)
@latisha@newsmebaby At the top of the 365 page, click on BROWSE, scroll down and click on Popular --read the entire page about Magic Photo Monkeys and then click SHUFFLE. It changes often.
This was mine, back in March of last year. I have only had two make it since I started the project over a year ago on January 1, 2011. This one was a rare sight to see! A Conjoined Orchid.
I think mine is this one although I'm not a 100% sure. It was a good three months into my project and I was thrilled that it made it! Still get thrilled to this day about getting a fav so you can imagine if one gets to the PP!
This was my first on the 29nd of June (1 month after joining 365) I had just downloaded GIMP a week before that and was trying to improve my editing skills... gone a long way after this LOL
Thanks one and all -- so great to see all of these wonderful photos! Magic Photo Monkeys should be proud! To the newbies and those you have yet to make the POP Page--keep clicking, commenting, and participating on 365! Have a snap happy week! :-)
Sometimes you walk around very long to make photos from all POV's and hope one of them will be great. But also sometimes you immediately see the photo in your head and just make him. That I had on the beach during Christmas vacation . The shot was my first one on the Popular page, was so proud!
Tweets ahoy!

Almost 3 months in.
I've never been.
I think this was my 1st PP pic!
No favs, but the monkeys still showed it off. Was it the exception that breaks the rule? :)
Day 45 - I have since mastered slightly less annoying watermarks...
My profile pic was there for three days :D
This is from almost a year ago....it remained my most popular photo until late in 2011 :)
I used my p&s on auto and had to guess where to aim to get the shot I wanted. I also uploaded it sooc (apart from a watermark which has since improved), I didn't expect much of a response to it never mind to make it onto PP
and this one from 365
It was such a fabulous feeling to get on the PP for the first time :)
This is from May. Day 58.

And this is the first this year.

Thanks everyone! I hope you see a shot and there is something you want to try or experiment with in your own journey! If you haven't made the POP Page, I say keep shooting and participate on the site as much as possible. :-)
I learned what the POP page was because of this photo!!
Took it on Friday 13th, so lucky for me.
It was day 4 and I was thrilled and after a year I am still thrilled if I get to PP
This is my first pic to make the PP on day 28 of my project last year. I still love it but these were the days before I knew what processing was so this is SOOC. I can see my growth in my project from this one!
But I haven't seen it:(
this one, I couldn't help but smile!
This one of mine made it last week :) I was incredibly proud of myself, haha :D
4th September 2011.
I couldn't believe it! I was so excited! :)
I think it was this one.....3 months into my first year. I hope I'm a little better than this now!
This was mine:
This is my one and only so far to make it! It is a great feeling!
(still not worked out how! lol)
My first and only. But hopefully not the last. ;o)
