A picture-a-day rather than a photo-a-day project.

And I still have no idea what I'm doing...



For 2017, my plan was to try get reasonably competent at Blender 3D rendering instead of just taking the same photos over and over. For 2018 and beyond, my plan is to continue along this trajectory - including posting 3D work-in-progress images as the projects get more complex. There'll also be the odd sketch and maybe some concept art.

Woefully rubbish at commenting (sorry).
I often post as restricted so my pics don't clutter up people's feeds. It doesn't seem fair to push shots when I don't currently have the time to reciprocate views and comments. This seems a good compromise for me as the alternative is to stop altogether.
I do eventually unlock shots, so my public calendar is about a day or two behind.


Completed a strict one-a-day 365 project in 2012 and less strict in 2013 - 2018.

I have no problem with Pinterest pinning or Tumblr-linking etc of my pix. No need to ask, but please do not take my pictures and re-edit/post them (e.g. for WWYD), especially with your own watermark. However well-intentioned, I find it upsetting. Thanks! :)

My complete 2012 365 project is here:
http://365project.org/humphreyhippo/365/2012-01
My strict rules for 2012 were:
- shoot, process and post a shot every day on that day (internet connection permitting)
- try not to do the same subject/type of shot on two consecutive days

My original profile notes were:
"Attempting a 365 to keep me taking photographs after returning to photography in 2011. While I hope this project will encourage me to keep trying new things, I'm expecting this to become more of a documentary, than an artistic, project. We shall see... :)" I was wrong. ;)
