Re: Vixens 365 Project
This 365 is really stretching my ability I can tell you. In the last 2 1/2 months I have tried a lot of stuff I've never done before, and some of it I have totally bombed out with but some of it has come off OK, but not quite good enough for me (they say you are your own worst critic
) so some of it I will be revisiting before the year is out. It's hard coming up with ideas every day, but I have the luxury of being retired, so plenty of time and I find the BEST way to get inspiration is to search the WWW
Thanks for all the nice comments. Much appreciated they are

The best way to learn is to try it. Enjoy the process and the journey.

Re: Vixens 365 Project
By the end of the year, when you look back at what you were doing then as compared to the end of the year, you will be surprised how far you have come. You will also start to discover the type of photography you like to do. I enjoy nature, critter, and macro photography. I have a really hard time photographing people so you won't see a lot of people pictures from me. You'll find what you enjoy. Just keep on shooting, experimenting, and just having fun.

Re: Vixens 365 Project
That one is easy Barbara. I already know that landscapes are my thing, and in particular I like long exposure watershots, but I also like macro of insects in particular and, like you, absolutely dislike people, so there may not be ANY people photos or if I decide to get outside the comfort zone I may post a selfie (the multiplicity shot I did I don't count as a selfie, as I had my back to the camera in all the poses I think). I'm hoping to do some night shots soon. That is something I don't do enough of

Re: Vixens 365 Project
I shoot all the time and I throw away a lot, lot more than I save. BUT the ratio gets better all the time.

Me too, especially when I'm trying stuff I've not done before. The landscapes not so much.

Re: Vixens 365 Project
and I have no idea about portraits, so you are already good on that score
Then again, I'm not a landscape shooter....mostly portraits.

65/365....7th Mar 2014
Had to go into town so took the dog for a walk along the river. Our local council allows grafitti artists to paint the flood protection wall along this stretch of the river. Some of the local talent is very good. I got my doggy to pose in front of the Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland
