A Picture a day....

I heard an interview on the radio some time ago with a photographic artist. The topic was her blog that she started with the premise that she take at least one photo per day and post it over the course of one year. I'm not certain if it was an attempt to get past some sort of artistic block or just an experiment for her, I cannot recall now, but I liked the idea and thought that I might emulate it on some level at some time.

I came close on my stock trading blog. I enjoyed creating the posts with the work and effort that it took to produce each so there were days that I might have had multiple posts. How hard could it be to just take a picture a day? Creativity came into the scope as just taking a picture for the sake of the action is typically not enough for those who would actually take on such a project which makes taking one picture a day more than mindless shots of salt shakers and stuff around the house.

There had to be deliberate intention to keep it up.

This ties into a post that I started earlier and haven't finished yet on deliberate living. Intention is not good enough as intentions with no follow through are just more wishful thinking. While wishing is fine it is a dead end without action, preferably some deliberate action.

Oh, back to what I was intending to post when I started this... this morning's late sunrise and this evening's sunset. The first with my iPhone and the second with my digital camera... oh, and the third is just something that I took during the summer that I happened upon while I was uploading these today. By the looks of the resolution it was also on the camera.

I don't think that I will aim to post a picture a day.

Jeff.
