just over halfway!

July 16th, 2011
Well i am am at 53% i noticed today to be honest i didn't think i would stick at this project for so long!! I have been finding it hard lately to find the time to even take photos/post and comment as i've been so busy. I am lacking inspiration big time and am not happy really with the photos i have taken. I know i've said this before but i feel a little lacking that i don't know what i do best in my photography subjects. Hopefully when the kids break up for school i will find a little more time to get inspired and get creative. I want to start taking part in all the themes and competitions :-) Sorry to all i follow that i haven't commented as much as normal - i promise to try a little harder :-)

Well done for getting this far in your project. I'm at 53% and lacking inspiration this week too.
In January I didn't know how long I would succeed in this but I am glad to make it this far and also a little sad that I'm past the half way mark. I think I'll be starting a 2nd year in January, I can't imagine not takign a picture a day now. If I've not taken something I am so restless until I have and then if it's something I'm not happy with (liek this week) I am grumpy with myself until I have am more inspired.

Enjoy the next 47% of your project and I hope inspiration strikes us both soon!

Exactly the same here, and I'm only halfway to where you are! When I started 3 months ago I wasn't very well, and as a result was sat on the sofa with 365 on my lap every evening! Now that I'm better I've gone back to the gym and swimming pool, and by the time I'm home I can only just manage dinner and bed! It's becoming a struggle to take/post photos on a daily basis, nevermind being able to have a good look at the people I follow's photos! And that's a shame, because I learn so much from others. One day (hopefully soon) I'll put the kettle on and catch up properly! X

@emmar84 @cariadon Last week I felt this way. I am going to share something that Emma (emmar84) shared that helped me pull out of the funk. Now, I love it again and have found inspiration everywhere. Hope it helps you!

"Whenever I have moments of "why bother?" I look back over the photos for the past 6 months, each one reminds me of aspects of the day and what was happening for me. Even if the memory is just of settign up the photo or where I was when I took it. Others bring back far more memories.
How many years do you have where you can honestly say you can remember something about each individual day?

Some days are better photos than others, some I love but get no views and some of what I think are my mediocre photos have loads of comments and favs. All of this is building into a wonderful reminder of a year which will soon be gone."

I am past the half way mark too. I have been struggling this week to remain on the 365 project. When I hit a bad time like this, I tend to go proactive. For this week, I told myself to look at my subjects from fresh points of perspective and look for ways to make my pictures unique. Although I kept struggling, even wanting to take a week long break from even taking pictures, I have been inspired by seeing that I am improving this week. When I started this project, I never knew I would go through low times like these. I will keep trying to hang in here and to keep on improving. People are so supportive on this project. I am so glad for that. 365ers keep me going!
