I have been waiting for the year to turn over because to me, "New Years" means "new beginnings." And what better thing to begin than a new P365 project? I was here long ago and grew so much in my photography as a result of taking part on this site.
Unfortunately, life got busy and some things had to give. Well, my old camera broke this summer and my husband gave me a new one for my birthday. Still a Nikon, but with so many more bells and whistles than the last one. I thought it'd be pretty much the same, but it's nowhere close! So not only have I been missing shooting as it is, I have a new camera that I'd really like to learn all the ins and outs of.
So I'm back, excited, motivated, and really looking forward to this year. I'm hoping to connect with old friends here and make new ones as well. I just want to dive back into this wonderful community and spend this year learning and creating.
So, cheers to 2024! Happy New Year! Here's to fresh starts!
Let's see...I love chain link fences, foreground blurs, sunsets, shooting into the light at golden hour, and decreasing the clarity ever so slightly to give...
Happy new year to you too! And what fun that we have been paired as buddies in the Get Pushed challenge. With just one picture, it's a challenge to think of something that might push you. But, seeing you already have some experience, and you are getting to grips with a new camera as well, I'd like to challenge you to 'Capture motion'. I've seen a beautiful still life as the start of your new project, I'm eager to see how you will represent motion in a still!
@walksnaplove thank you! Bokeh makes everything better! Ha ha @la_photographic thank you so much! @marlboromaam thank you! I've seen several shots just like this on the site too - there's just something about bubbly and lights for NY! @skipt07 Thanks Skip! I remember really liking your work back when I was formerly on the site. Looking forward to following your project again! @linnypinny thanks so much Lin! @shutterbug49 Thank you! It was fun being intentional about setting up a shot again. It feels like it's been so long since I did that last! @rbrettschneider I love it! I'm definitely more of a still rather than motion person, so that's a great challenge for me. Thank you!
@skipt07 nope! But I think I know the other Amanda you're talking about - she's still one of my FB friends. I would love to see her back over here too.
@la_photographic thank you so much!
