dreams into reality

When you start a long project it is sometimes very hard to imagine reaching the 'end'. 302 days ago I started my 365 project - hoping to improve my camera knowledge, and to give me some work-life balance. I am not sure I really believed I could take a photo every day for a whole year!

When work has been incredibly demanding, 365 has given me at least a few moments of ..'me time' ....each day. Now I have finally reached the end of the project at work, ...where I once dreamt of reaching the end of that project, I am now looking forward to a long overdue personal reward.
Such a neat way to end my 365 project...take you all on holidays with me! :)
Seems like Croatia is the place to be this year. Mum and dad are going in May and someone else I know is also going. Although I love you, you do know I hate you! So jealous. It has been such a long time since I was in Austria, Venice and Istanbul. :(

@sethtan Thanks Seth - I have completed the publishing project for work, but there are 63 days of my 365 challenge to go. I will finish just after I return from my holidays, and I am hoping to upload some shots as I go if all goes well.

@tkeen - 6 weeks off work ....Yahooo!

@monika64 @kaisisland @mwarren365 @michelleyoung @nattybabe @juanita - On 365 we see the world at it's best every single day, and I have often wished I lived in a more exotic location when I see so many stunning pictures. Grand holidays are certainly a great way to regain enthusiasm for photography. Let's hope my 365 experience has honed my camera work to take full advantage of this opportunity!

@ltodd One of the best things about 365 is that there is always someone interested in what you are doing...Lots of people will enjoy your travel!
March 17th, 2012  
Oooh, looking forward to this!
March 18th, 2012  
When are you off? Istanbul is fantastic. I would live to go to Croatia as well. Have a wonderful time.
March 18th, 2012  
@carolinedreams thanks Caroline - seven sleeps to go...(LOL) I have not been to any of the places we are going to, so it will be a whole lot of new adventures! I am looking forward to seeing so many new things, new experiences and new food experiences...I am looking forward to Cappodocia as well - have you been there?
March 18th, 2012  
No but apparently it's wonderful. I have friends who recommend ballooning there. My parents loved the little cave houses. A highlight in all their travels. Looking forward to seeing your photos.
March 18th, 2012  
@carolinedreams yes I am staying in a cave (?? the bathrooms are in the middle of the cave & have no doors & only half walls!! -- not sure THAT will be a photo opportunity!!) ...and I hope to go ballooning too. It looks like an amazing place. Glad to hear they all like the town.
March 18th, 2012  
@ltodd what an adventure. You will have such a great time!
March 18th, 2012  
I can't wait to see the photos. I am looking forward to 'travelling' with you.
March 18th, 2012  
Wow, such amazing places! Congrats on 365 and I hope you have an incredible vacation! Looking forward to seeing what captures your eye. :)
