Project 365 - Day 1

 

Today I decided to start a Project 365. I started a new blog using Posterous where I'll be posting a daily photograph taken and edited in my iPhone. I don't know exactly why I decided to do it, as nothing really happened to make me think about it or anything. I wanted to check out Posterous and for some reason thought this would be a good idea for it. I set it up to automatically post to my Flickr photostream and my Twitter account.

I've read about this type of project from other sites in the past. I think the first was Photojojo a long time ago, it sounded interesting and I actually toyed with the idea of it for a while, but nothing really came of it. At the time I had a Sony Ericsson phone and it just wasn't as much fun as a camera. Now I love my iPhone and I'm a bit obsessed with using it for photography and have been posting my iPhone photographs regularly, so it's time to just go for it. Inspiration also came from Chase Jarvis, a commercial photographer that has a really interesting and inspirational blog and is an avid iPhone-photographer.

The photo above is day 1. Today. I was at work and just grabbed this magnetic thing and shot it quickly to get something up. Not really good, but if I'm posting a photo a day for a year it's pretty much a given that some will be crap, which is actually kind of liberating.

My Project 365 blog is here. We'll see where this goes.
