[QUOTE="Vixen, post: 411729, member: 21839"] Well I take my hat off to you (and everyone else) for even trying to do a 365 when you work fulltime. It's hard enough to do when your time is your own. Like the others have said, you will have the same thoughts many times during the coming year, and like they have said don't feel bad about it because even tho YOU think your shots are mediocre, WE will look at them and think stuff like Ïwish I could do that"or "wow!! fantastic!!" Like Lawrence said...you are taking photos and just doing that is going to improve how you do stuff, make you learn new stuff etc I think trying to turn out what you think is a great shot every day will wear you out. I did that last year when I started and I very soon felt the pressure. I saw others just posting just to stay in and told myself it wasn't good enough. My time is my own tho, so I could spend 6hrs in one day trying to get stuff right in PPíng etc. After 365 days I can now pick up my camera and not even think too hard about settings needed. I can change setting without even thinking about what button to push. I feel strange if I DON'T take a photo...... I can do stuff in PS I couldn't even imagine 12mnths ago.
