365 Project

I gave up almost 2 months in for me school work was just piling up and I became lazy

Not to mention it sucks to have to take a photo EVERY day (even though I love photography), I just feel a bit too rushed.

Day 365

Here is my final photo for this project! I'm not going to be continuing into the new year. Most days, this was a headache for me. I'm too picky and expected too much from myself everyday, and because of that I wasn't happy with a lot of my photos. But I suppose thats a good mindset to have in general, just not for something as tedious as this. Overall I'm really happy I did it, and even more happy that I pushed through and finished it. I gained a ton of knowledge through this project, and definitely feel that I grew as a photographer. It taught me a lot of good things about composition and finding beauty in every day things, but also it taught me a good lesson about sticking with something and pushing through. This was for myself and noone else, and I think thats why I'm so proud of it.

Thanks everyone for all the good words along the way. It really did mean a lot to me, and kept me motivated to get good shots. I plan to do a 52 week project for 2012, so I'll definitely be shooting a lot throughout the year.

Congrats, John, on making it all the way through! It is WAY more difficult than people who've never done it believe ... especially when you expect perfection from yourself every day!

Congrats to all who have finished the project! I didnt start Jan 1, I started around May so I still a little ways to go

Photo for 12/31/11. Day 365!

LOL! Nice finish, Brandon!

I'm starting my second 365P tomorrow ... my first ended in early July so I've had a bit of a break ... have to admit a bit of nervousness about how I've set it up ...

But it's too late now! Bring it on!

Happy new year, everyone, may 2012 be kind to us all!

John, Brandon I love those! Both very clever!

Congrats to all my POTN friends on finishing project 365!!!!!!!! welcome to those who are starting again/are new...I can't wait to see our shots from 2012!

As for myself...I still have 120-some days to go....

See you next year! by Βrandon, on Flickr

Congrats on the finish everyone! What a great feeling it is once you've accomplished it with success! Think about it, it's a whole year of dedication and work, something to be proud of!

I'm happy to see some will keep at it for 2012! As for the others, be proud of what you've done

Have a great new year everyone !

Congradulatons to the ones finishing, some clever shots to end it with.

Brandon, that shot is really nice. I'm on my iPhone, but what's underneath the sticky note? Did you print that collage out, because those pics look quite small.

Soup, Brandon, John- Congrats on reaching the finish line and going out in style. Great shots!

I AM DONE!!!!!! WOOO HOOO!!!!!!!! Unfortunately, I will not continue next year, but I will be starting a 52 week project. I will definitely be checking back in and looking at everyone's progress. This thread has been inspirational and full of ideas that I have implemented and will implement in future shots!

Very nice ending shot Moe, the title fits perfectly. Sad to see you not continue in 2012 thought

Glad you had fun doing it!

I’ve rethought and decided to do a weekly photo project instead. Considering the busy life at work and at home, I think this makes it a much more manageable task.

"Foto 53” is what I am calling it: post one photo every Sunday of 2012 (there are 53 Sundays, I checked). This would be a photo taken in the previous week. So, my first post tomorrow will have been taken this week, ending Saturday, and so forth.

P.S. Congrats to everyone who just finished..!! What an accomplishment..! Hope you guys are continuing in 2012.
