Welp, here we are at the end of the year! Looking back at the roller coaster that was 2012 and I just don’t even know. Some many ups and downs. One thing that’s for sure, it would appear that 2013 is going to be quite the adventure.
I hinted at it before but I can say with about 90% certainty that the biggest adventure is that Sarah and I will be doing a lot of traveling. My work is sending me off to Kuwait for a contract and it’s for an extended period. We thought, the best way to not get lonely, would be to take Sarah with me! My company needed a tech writer and she is more than qualified so they hired her up and we head out in the beginning of the year. A good friend will be moving into our house and taking care of the cats while we are gone so it works out great for him too! This means that for almost ALL of 2013, Sarah and I will be world travelers!
This leads me into my New Years Resolution. I am making the pledge to do Project 365 for 2013. Project 365 is where you take one picture for each day of the year. It can be anything, but should focus on technique and using your camera well. I am teaming up with Louis from over on Gamut of Geek and we are both going t try and stick with it through the year. Of course, the challenge level for me being that some of the countries I am visiting have stricter photography laws, but at the same time, they are new and interesting.
The rules we have set down for each other are simple. Use our DSLR for as much of it as possible, but if we see something great and only have our cell phones, we take the shot. Also, no repeats. (I am sure no one wants 300 pictures of our pets) Uploads are not always important for every day since there may be days when we can’t get to the internet, but a picture must be taken and the EXIF will show the date. Uploaded when possible.
I’ll set up a Flickr set specifically for my P365 as well as a folder in my gallery. I may not post every picture on my blog, but I will try and update with what pictures have been taken.
2013 is going to be a fun year. Stay tuned!
