With winter drawing near, I figured we need to find ways to continue with creativity. While browsing Flickr, I came across a member that had embarked on a photo project for the month of November called "30 Days of Gratitude". In this project the center focus is gratitude and being thankful/appreciative since of course we celebrate Thanksgiving this month.

Now with it being already the 3rd, I'm still contemplating whether or not to make this the first project since I don't have an idea of how many of you guys would be interested in participating. If the interest is there, we can go ahead and get started. If not, my alternate first project idea is "50 Days of 50" where all images must be taken with the 50mm prime, whether its the 1.2, 1.4, or 1.8.

So who wants to participate?

 

50 days of 50 sounds good once I get the 1.4 since my 1.8 is jacked up.

 

Haha I did that before failed after the 23rd day

 

It's definitely going to take some discipline. I tried to do a year long project and I didn't follow through.

 

50 of 50 sounds good! Im down, just let me know when. I just need the motivation.

 

Im in for the 50.

 

im down! i love my 50 1.8

 

I'd be down! (Ro_Ja's probably gasping)....only problem is, I sold him my 50 1.8 (WHICH IS JACKED UP NOW?!!??!!!!!!!!), but I do have a 50mm prime macro. Will that do!?

 

it's not so much discipline as having many other important things going on in one's life that take precedence over picture taking!

i'd play along but no way would i get a shot everyday. the idea is cool though. maybe just less frequent.

 

*gasp* *gasp* *gasp* *gasp* *gasp* *gasp* *gasp* *gasp*

lol

I've already told you it's messed up. You want it back? For free of course. I'm not making you pay for something that may be broken. Maybe you can make it work again? I gotta head over to Canoga one of these days so I can get the 1.4 though.

 

when are we starting this?

 

im starting this weekend...time to start doing pictures for people again.

 

awesome! im gonna start this sat too.

do we post them here or just keep on them flickr?

 

can we make a group on Flickr? and post them? maybe if we could get 50 people and 1 person does one a day or have 10 people and rotate?

 

i'm up for it

 

dts

 

I figure Saturday will be a good time to start. Most people are off and have time to pick up the camera.

Would you guys like to do 30 days instead of 50? 50 sounds good in the title but that's a long time--almost 2 months lol.

I planned on making a separate thread for each project and everyone just post in there. But we can make a Flickr group in addition so more than just the people who frequent this forum will be able to see them. Maybe call it the "Scion Life Photo Project" or something.

Also, this is not restricted to DSLR cameras. However, try and post quality pictures even if they are from a P&S. The same general "rules" of photography apply, but don't hesitate to be creative.

 

I'm down

 

me too, as soon as my 50mm gets here...........

 

So what do you guys think--30 days instead of 50? I think 30 would be more doable.
