Daily Photo Project
I follow the work of photographer, Paul F Gero, a talented children’s photographer in California.
He has been doing a project for the last 325 days that has grabbed my attention, the concept is… One camera. One lens. One photo a day. It’s pretty self explanitory, every day he gets out his camera ( a 5D with a 50mm) and posts an image online. It doesn’t have to be his best work, it doesn’t have to be of anything in particular, it just has to be one picture, uploaded daily.

I really liked the concept. It will mean you are not neglecting your personal photography, it will start you taking your camera around with you most places (just incase the day’s photo op happens to be on the way to get milk), you can’t be too precious or perfectionistic about your work without driving yourself insain (what is going to be my biggest challenge), and most importantly it means you are spending a few minutes behind your lens every day. A great challenge for any photographer and one I decided to take on.
I am going to take one photo a day, with no limitations, and post it online.
I have created a blog for the project and have just uploaded the first post, follow the link to have a look…http://sarahhowse.tumblr.com/
