Photo inspiration: Doing a Project 365

There are many ways to improve your photography, but the best is probably... practice, practice, practice, as it is with most things in life.


One fun way to motivate yourself to take your camera everywhere, and to MAKE a photo even if there's no obvious photo to be found is to start a Project 365. At its most basic, it’s the simple act of taking a picture every day for a year. Many people will then post the photos on their blog, Flickr, Picasa Web Albums or just send them to friends. 


There are also many Project 365 websites where you can upload your daily photos, get some comments and share in the photo journeys of the other photographers. Have a look at http://365project.org/, for example.


Have fun!
