Title: New Year resolutions
Post by: chris@seary.com on December 17, 2009, 02:12:30 PM
What do you intend to do with your photography next year?

My aim is either get an exhibition or a book off the ground (even if I have to publish it myself).

What does 2010 entail (photographically) for all of you out there?

For me I think I need to focus more on a particular genre and push myself to produce at least one picture a month that I'd be happy to hang on a wall at home - unfortunately I not quite sure what topic to go for ::)

I'm going to try and get out at least once a week and push myself a little further. Hopefully have some quality shots and put them on photobox to sell.

Get out there and fire of some shots, learning by doing and having fun. More than what happened last year. Shouldn't be too hard!
Hopefully get something published, maybe even sell to some of the local tourism companies. Some kind of recognition, that can confirm that I'm on the right track!? If I have enough good and interesting captures I might try an exhibition my self.
I aired the idea of a local photo club, but ehhh ...... I'll be waiting with that one.

Cheers - Jan :beer:

To develop a more practical "artistic" approach to my photography without getting arty-farty about it.

Get off my arse and go out with the camera more than this year, (haven't pressed the shutter since Remembrance Day back in early November) ::)

Actually take more photos this year whilst taking more time to make sure they are 'keepers' and to learn more than the basics of photoshop

Enter CC competitions

Stop looking at new cameras until I have worked out how to use mine on anything other than auto...  :-[ :-[ :-[

Print off some pictures for once

5 Hrs of photoshop a week

Watch far less TV (it is just too easy to turn it on at 1900 until bedtime)

Look at some old cameras instead. Things might be learned. :)
