365 Project

One photo a day, every day, for a full year — 366 days and counting.

Project 365 Starts today! Jan 1, 2011

I have decided to do my own Project 365. What I will be doing is taking one picture with one of my cameras every day for 1 full year. I will be posting those pictures here for all to enjoy and comment on. This project w…

Day 1/365 (Photo a Day)

Here is my first picture for this project. Only 364 more to go! #Project365 Snowman is going to melt!

Day 2/365 (Photo a Day)

Day 2 of 365. So far I was able to do this two days in a row! So far I have only used my iPhone for the pictures. Soon I will start mixing it up with my dslr and my point and shoot. Let me know what you think, or if you…

Day 3/365 (Photo a Day) - Shadow of a Girl

I experimented with shadows by using our natural resource, the sun! This is the shadow of my daughter Jenna. If you think the shadow is cute, you should meet her! #Project365 Shadow of a Girl

Day 4/365 (Photo a Day) - When Two Equals One

My wife bought this today. So when my sarcastic self said "What is that?", she said it is us. So I immediately knew what to take for the next picture. So far these ideas have been delivered to me. Let me know what you t…

Day 5/365 (Photo a Day) - Dark Lights

Experimenting with Photoshop Lightroom. Can you guess what this is a picture of? #Project365 Dark Lights

Day 6/365 (Photo a Day)

Have you ever really looked at US currency closely. Go to  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_one_hundred-do..._bill to find out more information about the $100.00 bill and other denominations. Make note of the serial…

Day 7/365 (Photo a Day) - From Me To You

It's been a full week and I have taken a photo everyday. If you are doing something you love, it doesn't seem like work. Believe it or not, I actually used my green-screen for this photo. So for all of you that have sen…

Day 8/365 (Photo a Day) - For Coffee Lovers

OK, so it took a while to get this almost perfect. You may already know what they are. If you use K-Cups for your morning fix, respond to this post and tell me how you like them and what's your favorite flavor of coffee…

Day 9/365 (Photo a Day) - Colorful Gumballs

Here is a colorful arrangement that I thought looked pretty cool. I put a bunch of gumballs into a vase and shot down into it creating a cool effect around the gumballs. Let me know what you think.  #Project365

Day 10/365 (Photo a Day) - Guitar Daze

Even though I haven't picked it up lately, I've been playing guitar most of my life. Those that know me from ages ago remember my hair band days. If you really want to see pictures of that, you can easily find them on t…

Day 11/365 (Photo a Day) - Lego Melting Pot

This one isn't as artsy as some of my previous photos. Look at all my son's Lego mini-figures. I thought I put them together to symbolize something. Can you guess what it is? The title of this post is a big hint!  #Pro…

Day 12/365 (Photo a Day) - Icicles

We got tons and tons of snow today, so it only made sense to take a photo of something to do with it. Icicles from my roof looked pretty cool!  #Project365

Day 13/365 - Candlelight

I wanted to show a single flame and not the actual candle. I was able to darken everything but the flame. I need to practice more with flame photography. Let me know what you think. If you have suggestions on how to tak…

Day 14/365 - Circle of Squinkies

By the title of this post, you may be thinking "Mike has lost his mind", but if you have young kids, Squinkies are toys. I got home from work today and my daughter Jenna, almost 5 years old had this scene all set up. Of…

Day 15/365 - They're Not Just Coasters Anymore

Remember those annoying AOL CD's you got in the mail years ago. If for some reason you still have these, here is a cool use for them other than coasters.  #Project365

Day 16/365 - Cupcakes

A picture to make you salivate! These are as yummy as they look! We had them for dessert tonight!  #Project365

Day 17/365 - QWERTY

I took a close up picture of my laptop's keyboard and cropped this out. Go to  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qwerty to find out more information about this type of keyboard.  #Project365

Day 18/365 - Honey Do List

Building this Bench was on my Honey Do list. Wasn't difficult, but I wanted to document something I did today.  #Project365

Day 19/365 - Bowl of Fruit, how exciting!

Yes, this photo is a cliché, but I had to take one. I know it's not much, but it did take some time to get the right show. Let me know what you think.  #Project365

Day 20/365 - Our Dog Bindy

We rescued Bindy last year and gave her a great home. So I thought it is only appropriate to share this with everyone! She was used for breeding and left in the country to fend for herself. Who does this? What kind of s…

Day 21/365 - Drops of Water

We got hit with another snow storm today. Here are some water drops that were on a window at my house.  #Project365

Day 22/365 - Two Hearts

This photo is a picture of my daughters necklace hanging up. I tried to capture two hearts together as one. Yes Phil Colins, "Two hearts, believing in just one mind"  #Project365

Day 23/365 - Let Me Out!

This funny character was sitting on top of my old 20 inch Sony computer CRT monitor a few years ago. Since I switched to an LCD I had to take it off because it wouldn't fit. It always made me laugh a little while I was …
