I Did It!

Zirkle Project 365 is complete for 2009! I can not believe that a whole year has passed since beginning this endeavor. Time has a way of flying by, but I'm enjoying reliving the minutiae of the year as I review the pictures that I've taken.

And now it's time to evaluate the project as I gear up to do it again in 2010 (hey, that rhymes):

• I love my results, and feel as if my photography skills have really improved over the past year, but the pictures and accounts seem to be a bit one-dimensional since nearly all of the pictures were taken by me and all of the updates were written by me. In 2010, I plan to give the camera to other family members more often and have them supply the written update to correspond with their pictures.
• I need to make sure that I get the pictures posted more frequently, because doing more than a week's worth of pictures at a time is really overwhelming. And I also need to recognize that posting the updates on a daily basis is just not realistic. So, continue posting each day's picture and update, but perhaps every 3 days, instead of daily or weekly or (ahem) monthly.
• More reader input would be greatly appreciated! See a picture that you really like? Leave a comment! Did a post crack you up? Let me know! It is so much easier to keep up with this type of a task if I know that folks are reading it.

Thanks to this project, I have been inspired to turn my passion for photography into a business, so be looking for some updates about that in future posts. I can't wait to take a picture of my new camera!
