Day 4 – Home Working

The last few days have been fairly easy to get a photo because I've been out doing stuff. It is a little more difficult when I am at work, especially at the moment as I go to work in the dark and come home from work in the dark. I suppose I need to be a little more organised if I am to get a photo a day! 

I worked from home today and this was my view.

Day 1 – Gog Gog

Caitlin likes Gog Gog (yogurt)!

Caitlin likes yogurt although at the moment she calls it 'Gog Gog' and then nods very enthusiastically when you open the fridge! Taking pictures of Caitlin is quite difficult at the moment mainly because she wont stay still but also because she wants to hold the camera regardless of the amount of gunk covering her hands!

Project 365

After following the first 32 days of Emily Wall's 365 Day Project I have decided to try and do the same. The idea is simple … I will take a photo every day for a year. Hopefully this will make me a better photographer and will keep my blog a bit fresher than it is at the moment. I'll be using either my Nikon D80, Sanyo Xacti VPC-CA9 or iPhone and will try my best to tell the story behind the picture and what processing ,if any, I have done.

I'll probably not manage to post each picture as it is taken but will try my very best to make sure I take a shot every day. I hope that as the year progresses you'll see an improvement in what I am taking, how I am taking it and how I am processing it.
