I had no idea

Apparently this picture a day thing is more popular than I thought.

All the way back in 2006, photojojo had published a little tutorial on how to take a picture a day. I swear I had no idea about it, it was just a random thought in my brain at the time, but the tutorial is quite good. I would include though that it's good to have some ideas during the day of what to take a picture of. Just being spontaneous and waiting for something cool is sure to leave you scrambling at the end of the day.

Also, maybe it's just me, but I at first felt really weird to just whip out a camera and start taking pictures. I'd wait til no one was around, but I'm slowly starting to loosen up.

It seems that with the new year more people are jumping on the picture a day bandwagon.

Life of a Square(d) started hers with a cute picture of her puppy.

A little of this . . . a little of that is trying to post a weeks worth in one post. So many more pictures much less talk.

Has anyone else started (or perhaps re-started? Valerie and Grosgrain Bride) to take a picture a day or 365 as some more numerically inclined like to call it?

I'd love to have a feed or even a blog list we could all share of everyone that's doing this. So if you're game or have been for a while just leave me a comment or e-mail me. It'd be kinda cool to have a little support group going.

Edit to add: I found another one from Indefinately Definite who got the idea from Take a Look into my Life.

Hi!!!! :)

Thanks for your sweet post on my blog... :)

Yes, I'm committed and dedicated to doing a photo a day and then I'm going to make it into a little book, and hopefully start a tradition and doing it annually!

:) I"m going to add you to my list of blogs so i can follow your pics too!

Happiest New Year! ♥

I started Project 365 this year! It's so much fun! I don't plan on posting every picture. But I will make an album on Shutterfly or something. It's such a cool idea!

I believe that Kimbery Michelle is doing Project 365, but isn't posting daily about it on her blog.

I'm thinking of it, but I'm not sure when to start or how I'd post on my honeymoon in June!

Haha, well, I'm trying to do a picture a week. 52 weeks is kinda like 365 days, but... I don't have to take a picture every day. Who knows though. I might start doing it every day. If I get my blasted camera (more like lens now), I'll start taking and posting pics.

Flickr has a few pools you can join. Or we could make a flickr pool ourselves. But I'd be all for posting in a community blog.

What a great idea...I think that it will be so much fun to look at the pics next year and remember all those memories...

Thanks again for the props! I mentioned you in my post. I just posted yesterday's photo today; the Internet was down last night.

I look forward to taking today's photo, Sabrina. I hope that you "visit" often. ;)
