Who wants to spice it up with me??

February 19th, 2010
Ok, i dunno about you all but I need ... SOMETHING

So i've decided to start an "Alphabet Project."

I thought I would share this idea with all of you, my 365 friends, and see if anyone would be interested in joining this challenge with me!

Basically....

We'll go for 26 days, each day, the photo focus has to start with the letter for that day.

Here is an example for the letter P.

Get my just???

So I was thinking of starting this project on Monday, Feb 19th...
it will be challenging!!! that's for sure. but could be fun too and push some creative boundaries...AND it might be funner if a few of us do it together!

Anyone with me???

:)
February 19th, 2010
Sounds like a challenge and I am game! But lets start on Monday Feb. 22nd ! :)
February 19th, 2010


I am so in! I feel like I'm in a photo funk right now - though I'm challenging myself with all these sign pics since I don't think I've ever really photographed a sign! Lol.

an alphabet project sounds like a lot of fun! Thanks Sarah! :)
February 19th, 2010
oops LOL thanx andrea

it must be friday :S

MONDAY FEB 22 START DATE !! :)

awesome girls :)
February 19th, 2010
ooh i might have to be in on this one!
it sounds like fun :P
now if i just remember on the 22nd. lol
February 19th, 2010
Sounds like fun, I will give it a try.
February 19th, 2010
Me! I've been thinking about this for the past 2 days--your post is the motivation to do it! I was thinking it would make a great bday present (as a finished photo book) too for one my kiddos!!
February 19th, 2010
I'm in! I was going to start in March but a week or two won't kill me. Great idea
February 19th, 2010
I'm in :o)
February 19th, 2010
Sarah do you think you could make a link to all tagged photos like with the weekly theme. That way we can easily follow everyone who chooses to accept your mission, heehee. Of course we have to all have the same tag.....maybe alphabetproject?
February 19th, 2010
Yeah, I'll give it a try :) I also agree with Andrea we should tag our photos with alphabetproject, it'll make it easy to find
February 19th, 2010
I would love to!! :)
February 19th, 2010
Yes yes yes! I'm so stale right now I need a focus! Thanks for a great, creative idea Sarah!

Will we post anywhere special like for theme weeks?

February 19th, 2010
Brilliant! I want to play too...
February 19th, 2010
I'm definitely going to participate. I've been having trouble coming up with ideas lately. This might be just what I need to get out of this rut I'm in.
February 19th, 2010
Sounds fun!
February 19th, 2010
awesome!!!

ok guys, i'm stoked on the participation!!

need your opinion on the tags.... should we tag for every letter???

like "alphabetproject-a" "alphabetproject-b" etc????
or just one big alphabetproject tag?? might be easier if we separate by letter...what do you think?

i will create a post in the 'themes & competitions" section on monday, the 22nd as reminder :) and we can post updates there.

sound good???
February 19th, 2010
I think either way is fine but if we tag each letter we wont have to repeatedly scroll through as many pictures...I mean by day 26 that could be alot of photos!! :)
February 19th, 2010
me too! me too!
February 19th, 2010
this sounds fun, im in!
February 19th, 2010
OK!!!!

it's a go

i'll post a discussion thread on monday and we'll tag each letter separately and discuss our progression there!
looking forward to it!

have a great weekend everyone :)
February 19th, 2010
I'm in, as well!
February 19th, 2010
what if the tag is shortened?
maybe just "abc-a" "abc-b" etc.
February 19th, 2010
Ohhh, great challenge! I may be in :) Let me see about it when Monday rolls around - this should be fun!
February 19th, 2010
I'm down.

P.S *more fun > funner
February 19th, 2010
Great suggestion Emily! I think the shorter tag is easier
February 19th, 2010
I'm all for the shorter tag too
February 19th, 2010
sitting here trying to figure out a pic for today and coming up with nothing......i think i am in as well :)
February 19th, 2010
Great idea!!!! I'm in!
February 19th, 2010
Would this photo count as your 1 photo of the day or would it be in a second group?
February 19th, 2010
hey all

the shorter tag is a good idea

:p

"abc-a" "abc-b" etc will work perfectly! i'll do a reminder for that also on monday.

allison, this WILL count as your photo for the day..
it's just 26 days of direction and a new challenge

hopefully we can help eachother along the way with the tricky ones - i think it'll be fun - hopefully :)

we will have a new theme put up on sunday like we usually do - so the trick will be incorporating BOTh too, if you would like to.

yay!
February 19th, 2010
I'm willing to give it a shot. It definitely sounds like fun and like it will be a challange.
February 19th, 2010
In. Love the idea of the challenge. May have to involve the great thinking minds of children at my school!
February 19th, 2010
Excellent Im in
February 19th, 2010
sound like fun. I wonder if I can base my hug project around the alphabet?
February 19th, 2010
Ooooh, I'm in! :)
February 19th, 2010
OH! I love this idea! I love letters...and words...! :)
February 19th, 2010
Well Kiwi you could find people who's name begin with the letter of the day....or maybe have big foam letters then have a group hug Bwahaha
February 19th, 2010
I am in!
February 19th, 2010
me too!
February 20th, 2010
Cool, I'm in too. Now for the letter of the day ideas .... *thinking music*
February 20th, 2010
I'm in too! Are you starting with A or just planning to hit every letter in the 26 days?
February 20th, 2010
Interesting idea...hmmm, extra challenging, thinking music indeed.
February 20th, 2010
Sounds fun. I missed a whole week of photos (BAD, me). This will help me get back on track :)
February 20th, 2010
yay :)

yup, we'll start with the letter 'A' on Monday!
i'm loving the music vibe :)
February 20th, 2010
I'm in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
February 20th, 2010
This could be fun. I don't know if I can stay after tomorrow though.
February 20th, 2010
This sounds a lot easier than what I saw the other day... Photos of everyday objects that had each letter of the alphabet. I like this one!
February 20th, 2010
fantastic, i love this idea, DEFINITLEY in!! thanks for the creative suggestion, and for helping us all out of a mid-february funk
February 20th, 2010
i feel like this is an episode of sesame street blown to mass proportion.
and might i add... i love me some sesame street :P
February 20th, 2010
sound like fun. i'm only 7 days into my project and have already struggled to think of what to take pictures of. My subject can't always be my cats...or maybe...
February 20th, 2010
Wu
Definitely will try it!
February 20th, 2010
I will definitely try also (if I remember). Would be fun to see everyone's photos.
February 20th, 2010
Sounds pretty cool to me! I can just see on day 26, the hundreds of pictures of zebras, zoos and zippers... lol
February 20th, 2010
Wu
:: gasp:: alex you stole all my ideas for Z :P

I'm thinking there's going to be a lot of apples for A
February 20th, 2010
I'll see if I can keep up with you Sarah!
February 20th, 2010
Sounds like fun! I will try to take part in this!
February 20th, 2010
This sounds like a good challenge! I thought taking a photo every day was hard enough....:-)
February 20th, 2010
Great idea. I'll give it a go.
February 20th, 2010
I might be interested..I've seen something similiar on here, but ...it's an idea to focus on, that's for sure!! I think I'm in,.
February 20th, 2010
I'll give it a go!!
February 20th, 2010
i am in too...have been thinking of doing the same from past few weeks...
was lazy to go out and do the work...:p...!...but this thread gives me the necessary motivation...looking forward to it..
February 20th, 2010
I'll give this a go :)
February 20th, 2010
great to hear everyone :)
February 20th, 2010
i will give a shot! I want to try something new, it's gonna be fun :))

But i'm having trouble uploading my photos today, it keeps giving me the blank page! anybody can help me?
February 20th, 2010
I'm in! I've been in a slump with finding things to take pictures of. Thanks for the idea!
February 20th, 2010
I may try it!!
February 20th, 2010
will try it!
February 20th, 2010
I will try too.
February 20th, 2010
I'M IN! :-D This sounds like fun!
February 21st, 2010
pretty sure i am going to give this one a shot - can't guarantee i'll make it to the end! lol
February 21st, 2010
I'm in!
February 21st, 2010
Oh boy. I am sucked in. Now I not only have the pressure of taking a picture of the day I have to alphabetize it too. Pressure. Pressure. I can feel it already.
February 21st, 2010
my mom told me about this web site that does pictures of 'things' that look like letters and makes words out of them... thought it was neat and could be a good idea for this project
I will post the link if thats not okay someone can edit it

http://www.letterkeepsakes.com/letter_art_gallery.html
February 21st, 2010
oh and Im so in and Im going to try to do the theme too hahahaha... see how that one works out :D could be lots of fun!
February 21st, 2010
i'm in! i'm in need of something fresh! can't wait to begin & see what everyone comes up with as well! yay this is exciting!
February 21st, 2010
Sounds fun, i'm in. I've been lacking in motivation and inspiration lately so this should be awesome!!
February 21st, 2010
I'm new at this but would love to give it a shot. Count me in!
February 21st, 2010
Fun! I'll give it a go too!
February 21st, 2010
sounds good :)
February 21st, 2010
A is for awesome ! - love to have a go at this
February 21st, 2010
I've fallen off the band wagon a little lately so i'm in! Hopefully this will get me going again, and i'll have time to take some awesome pictures between breaks at school or something :)
I'm in! :)
February 21st, 2010
ali
i'm in! i need SOMETHING too... thanks for the idea!
February 21st, 2010
hey...something that might create confusion here is that do we have to look for alphabets in our daily lives or do we have to picture words\objects etc with the same alphabet...!...
clearing this might take the project to a different level..
February 21st, 2010
Sounds fun! I wanna play!
February 21st, 2010
it's not taking photos of an "A" or a "B" - it's taking photos of something that starts with an A or B, etc.
hope that clarifies :)
February 21st, 2010
I'll give it a try :)
February 21st, 2010
Wu
with respect to tags, did we settle on "abc-a" "abc-b" etc?
February 21st, 2010
So are we tagging them as "abc-a", etc??
February 21st, 2010
What a good opportunity to look at things around me a bit differently! At first I hesitated to sign on, but my brain's now going through the alphabet everywhere I look! Count me in!
February 21st, 2010
this sounds like fun, I'm going to give it a go!
February 21st, 2010
cool idea I want to start this at the beginning of march
February 21st, 2010

February 22nd, 2010
