I’ve been taking pictures as far as I can remember. I have a collection of pictures and negatives in the thousands. But I never really took the time to master photography. So I finally got myself a decent digital camera and I finally started to take the time to learn all the properties of light and depth of field as well as the intricate functions of the camera.

When 2010 was coming up I mentally prepared to take on my biggest commitment ever to improve my understanding of the camera. I set a difficult goal to force me into the learning process. The challenge is to take pictures every day and post a picture taken on the same day that it’s posted, every day in 2010. It’s proven to be harder than I thought it would be and I’m only on day 9 as I write this.With this challenge, I’m not aiming to document any particular lifestyle or culture. I’m only trying to take as many pictures as I can in 365 days and document my progress.  Wish me luck!
