Project 365

When I was in New Zealand...oh, about this time last year, I got to hang out with one of the local photographers. He introduced me to something called Project 365.

The idea is to take one picture everyday for a year.

Sounds easy right?

It's not.

In fact, the more I have learned about it, the more I understand that it's one of the most difficult things a photographer can undertake.

Think about it. What one thing do you do everyday of your life?

Hell, I don't even take a dump everyday.

More on this later (the project, not me taking a dump).

I had planned on using a fireworks shot from the New Year's celebration as my first picture this year, but unfortunately the team that summits Pike's Peak was unable to make it due to horrible weather.

-80 with wind chill. Ouch.

So, instead, here is an HDR shot from Garden of the Gods I took while I was out doing test shots for the New Year's shoot.
