I'm Goin' To Do It! {And Finish It!}

A few years ago I started Project 365 where I took a picture everyday. At the time it was a self portrait a day and I lasted probably 15 or 16 days tops. For my new years resoltuion this year I am going to try this project again - 2011 seems like a good year for it. This time I won't be doing self portraits - that's too hard - I'm just going to photograph every day stuff. I now have a really cute subject to take pictures of if there isn't anything else that sticks out in everyday life. But I take pictures of Brantley all the time so I want this to be more about what is going on around us and less about him.

I have made excuses for not doing it on the past even though I've really wanted to. My main excuse was my big bulky camera (that I love so much and am not complaining about in the least bit) is not very easy to carry around in the purse. But the iPhone takes pictures just fine and maybe Santa will bring me a small point and shoot camera this year for Christmas. :) I know it is going to be tough to follow through with it for a year and there are going to be days when taking a picture is the last thing I want to do, but I think to have 365 pictures at the end of what was going on my life that year seems pretty cool.

I'm not sure how I'm going to keep up with my new project. Maybe upload to here every week on Sunday so there will be seven weeks worth and categorize them so I can find them easier. Or maybe I'll upload them to my Flickr account. But I think you'd have to update to the Pro account to be able to upload as many as I'll have and I'm kind of cheap.

So I'm not starting this until January 1st, 2011. (Holy crap we are almost in 2011!) But I feel the need to put it out there so I will actually follow through with it! I will. I will. I will. I'll keep telling myself that...
