Nine months in, 244 days. Time flies, no?

That is my first camera. Made of plastic. Won in a contest by my mother.

Now I mostly use something like this.

Or, you know, the fukin phone.

Eight months in and, good grief, not only do I find it hard to believe I've managed to maintain the 365 Day Project, I can't believe it's already August.

7 - 1

365 Day Project.

Seven months in and I have to admit it's getting a bit tedious. Not the photography, but the computer blogging work to put up the pictures.

Could be doing something else, like be outside taking pictures.

Go figure.

Six Months In

Six months in a picture a day for a year and still going.

I like to look at people's tech stuff, so I thought I'd show you the cameras I'm using.

Left to right -- DJI Osmo Pocket (I love that thing.) Olympus Pen 8, small and sharp. DJI Osmo Action (I really love that one.) Nikon D7200, heavy but a workhorse. GoPro 8, haven't used it enough to tell if it is as freeze glitchy as the last one. And of course, the fu*kin phone.


It amazes me that such a powerful camera and computer fit in this small a package. Which is probably why the Nikon seems to get heavier and HEAVIER.


This project does seem to be inspiring me. When all  A N Y O N E  has to do is rip off a click on their smart phone and make a picture, I got out a tripod and sat for an hour watching Western Tanagers.

Onward.
