365 self portraits. Can I actually do it? Inspired by many others, I decided to give my creativity a kick in the pants with a Daily Photo project. With life happening too fast, quite often I lose the spark that drives me to pick up the camera. Hopefully I can maintain not only this project, but the ability to develop more as a photographer. Ideally, the majority of these will be self-portraits to help me get over my image complex and to document the most important, memorable moments of each day.
My rules:
1. At least part of myself in each shot. Every 24 hours.
2. EXIF data pulls rank. I travel and can't always upload on a timely matter, but the timestamp is as the timestamp does...
3. Try to document the dominant activity/event of the day. This is a journal-type project for me, too.
4. Having help is OK. While I always set up the shot myself, occasionally the location requires having someone else hit the shutter for me.

Last day of work before vacation! We and Matt (this sounds grammatically incorrect) went out for Mexican - yes, that's twice in one week, but it was a change and a good time.
I'm still playing with this fisheye. I have a few other lenses in my temporary arsenal, but this is really the one I find myself using for fun the most.
Tomorrow will be the first day in weeks I can sleep without needing to set the alarm in the morning. I plan on enjoying that as much as I can.
