Anyone interested in doing this again? While I'm not Barrie, Scottwdw, or Photographer, in 2008 when we did this I found that, as much as I sometimes thought it was a pain (the discipline of always taking my camera was the pain), I really did enjoy it. I didn't quite make it to 1 per day but did come close. Here's the link to what I did http://www.flickr.com/photos/20697893@N03/sets/72157603641219955/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/20697893@N03/sets/72157603641219955/)

So does anyone else want to join in?

At TominPok's suggestion I've added links to everyone's project.

Good idea Mark, I'll try.....

Barrie

12-31-2009, 10:44 AM

I'm thinking about it again - but only one or two a week this time instead of daily.

If I do, I'll probably post them on this site: http://barrieb.aminus3.com/

WDWNJ

12-31-2009, 12:10 PM

I think I'll try for one a week. Every day will be pushing it especially since I work from home. You guys will get tired of seeing my cats... :)

Anyway, I'm in for one a week and I'll just post here. I don't have a flicker acct.

Oh, and Barrie, the pictures on your site above are outstanding!

I'm planning to do this again. I never get tired of looking at all the photos.

12-31-2009, 12:52 PM

I'm in! I will be doing at leat one per week. You will be able to view the photos at: http://lle2010.wordpress.com/

I just set the site up and do not have any photos posted as of yet. Well, except for the banner photo. :)

Just had to say "Barrie" your slide show is fantastic.

I am not sure yet. I have a new camera to play with. I have signed up for some classes through the store and community ed.

I know that I need to get a new computer before I can really play and have fun.

I'm in! I had already decided to do a Photo-A-Week project for 2010. I recently purchased Adobe Lightroom, and needing to produce a photo each week will be added incentive to learn how to use it.

My PAW gallery is here: http://www.pbase.com/tominpok/paw06

Ok, I have got my blog set up! I have posted some of my favorite photos of 2009 (ones taken with my new camera) and I have my first post for the week of January! If you are interested, please checkout:

Really nice start Linda!

Thanks Jim! I changed my mind about where I'm going to put my photos for this project. Here is the new link (http://www.barriebrewerphotography.com/Other/Project-FiftyFifty/10854384_b3Dwp#757285787_ScBEg), but there isn't anything there yet.

I've started posting my project here: http://s267.photobucket.com/albums/ii300/LAdania01/Project%202010/?albumview=slideshow&direction=reverse

Don't expect anything stunning.

I'm hoping to be ready for my first digital SLR this year...so I figure I need to learn how to use the manual settings on my point & shoot. That's what I've been working on so far.

dizfan7

01-11-2010, 07:20 AM

I think you have a good start. It is good to play with the manual settings. I like the photo of your little girl "enough with the camera" and the icicles.

I have posted my Week 2 photo.

I've subscribed to your photo blog Linda. I think I commented on one of them. Well I know I commented...just not sure if I hit submit or not.

My little girl actually said..."enough with the camera!" when I took that photo. :D

I really envy you for having the daily access to the big city. Looking forward to seeing more of NYC through your eyes.

I finally took the time to look at everyones photo's, they are great. It was noticable when looking at them all at once how unique each persons were. I am looking forward to following this thread for the rest of the year.

Mark - would you mind if I sent a copy of one of your photo's to a friend, it is the boat in the harbor called Helen McAllister? I have a girlfriend with that name and she would get a kick out of it.

TominPok

01-25-2010, 07:55 AM

I just took a browse through the galleries, and all I can say is Wow!!! Everyone is off to a great start!

Would it be possible to edit the first post in this thread so that it points to each of our project galleries? I think that could save us all lots of time when checking out each other's work.

Being that everyone I included has already posted a link I didn't think it was a problem, but if any of the photographers objects to this please let me know and I'll remove the link.

Thanks Linda - many of those on the first page were taken at a minus tide so they were parts of the beach you almost never get to see. We love going then.

Mark, thanks for the links on the first thread (and Tom for the idea). Makes it much easier to find each gallery.

WDWNJ

Linda - I really like the geese photo too. I'm very happy to see your snow pictures without having to experience it first hand.

Scott - I've been meaning to tell you how much I like your ducks in flight photo. Your really nailed that one - the focus is perfect.

Scottwdw

02-01-2010, 06:02 AM

Barrie - I was going to kid you that you were already behind. Your gorilla shot is awesome! That group seems to be going through a lot dominance behavior. I witnessed a similar scuffle in December.

The BIF shots were the best of many,many misses. Love digital photography!!!

Barrie

02-01-2010, 09:56 AM

DizzneeMomma - I was going to leave a comment on one of your photos but didn't want to sign up for photobucket so I'll post it here. That last shot of the moon is really lovely. Nice capture.

Goodness me...thank you for the compliments! Beautiful moon shot makes me snicker though. :)

Moving my project to a blog site is on my list of things to do. I'll probably go with wordpress. What's currently holding me back is that I don't know what I want to name it. Everything I tried has already been taken, so I need to put more thought into it...or maybe think about it less and hopefully it will come to me.

03-10-2010, 11:45 PM

I finally moved my project to a blog site. You won't find amazing photography there, but I do love this project. I've learned so much from doing it and hope to learn a whole lot more. There are so many great photographers in this group. I really feel a bit out of place. I'm not about to back out though...too much fun! :)

Lazy morning so far...perfect opportunity to browse everyone's photos. There are so many great things about this collective project. I've become a witness to different lifestyles, a tourist to places I've never been, a guest in your home and student of your photography. This is really cool.

Timon, would you mind changing my link in the first post? I will no longer be updating my photobucket album for this. Instead, I'm posting at wordpress.

I took Scott's advice and joined a photography meetup group in Portland, the Portland Hobby Photographers. About 25 of us went out Tuesday night to take some photos of the city. I wasn't thrilled with any of my shots, but this was my fave from the night. Click on it to see the nine that I thought were worth posting from that evening.

Barrie - I love night shots and these are spectacular. The sharpness and clarity is amazing. I like that I can click on the info button and steal, see, your settings. I now know that I need to start using smaller aperture settings.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks John. I love night shots too. I'm hoping to get some good ones to share next week.

Yesterday I went to the Chinese Garden. I've only uploaded one so far but it's the one I'm using for this project. You can see it larger if you click on it.

Thank you, John. It had been several years since the last time Deb had seen them. When we came off the 14th St. bridge and crossed over the Tidal Basin, I kept telling Deb to look, she kept saying find a parking place, after about the third "look", she did and the excitement she showed was so cute! :D Even if you have seen them, each year is a new experience. I hope you get to see them someday.

Thanks, John. There were two of them soaring overhead. This one came the closest and I still had to crop a lot even with the 400mm lens I was using (which is really a 600mm with my camera's crop factor). The old D70 did good!

Survived my first Relay for Life fund raising event in my hometown. 12 hours of walking and more fund raising on-site plus, if you count campsite setup and breakdown, another 6 hours. Still, my team (pictured below with our team banner) raised over $4,400 (http://stphoto.wordpress.com/2010/06/21/view-130-making-lemonade/) which was good for 2nd place among the 44 teams and 684 people participating.

Thank you Linda Lou! I'm still excited about my camera...but not getting any great shots yet. I have no idea how to control anything...hoping for a chance to read the manual a bit tonight.

Have the camera in hand when reading the manual. Also, I always recommend reading Bryan Peterson's book, Understanding Exposure (4th Ed.), which will show you how to use your new camera to get those great shots you are looking for.

Thanks Scott. I'll look for the book. I've had my camera for almost a month...I feel much more comfortable now. My photos are getting better but I still have a lot more to learn about all those buttons and settings. I've discovered I don't like it in full auto mode at all.

I'm a couple weeks late in my project posts, but sticking with it. I'm going to try and get caught up tonight or tomorrow.

I'm glad some of you post photos here and keep this thread going. They're always stunning.

My bad! I should have explained what calving is. As far as the cold, it really wasn't as cold as you might think. Although, the closer we got to the ice, you could feel the temperature start to drop.
