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.
My current 365 Project gallery is here!

Today, since I was unable to go back to the slopes due to a boarding injury, Trav and I spent the morning exploring the town of South Lake Tahoe. It really sucked not being able to enjoy the snow like the rest of SmugMug was, but while I'm stubborn, I'm not suicidal. We had a great time poking around the tacky little shops and freezing our fingers as we scurried from place to place. On a Monday morning, things were a little quiet which was great. We also had lunch at a little cafe, enjoying the coziness and the friendliness of this resort town.
I can't wait to come back. And we both promise that the next time this trip happens, we won't suck so much at snowboarding!
