Photo Projects - Why you should participate
Neil Creek is an Australian photographer who is part of the Fine Art Photoblog. He is a photo project junkie, and runs a new one every month on his blog. The View From Below at neil.creek.name© Neil Creek Photo projects are sweeping the ‘net. If you’re a photographer online and you aren’t yet participating, you should! Thanks to my participation in photo projects my photography has improved, I’ve made many new friends and contacts, and largely through participating in and later running projects, my own blog has gone from 30 views a day and no subscribers to 500+ views a day and 600+ subscribers. These challenges take many forms and call upon you to take photos that meet a certain set of rules as a way of testing your abilities, teaching you skills, and coming together to participate with other photographers from all around the world. There are all kinds of projects covering all kinds of topics, including: self portraits, specific subjects, particular camera gear or post processing and more. Some projects are a single photo, one a week or one a day, some last a month, others an entire year!
