What’s Your Preference?

jprime - I used to do a similar drive/job a few years ago so I can understand your situation

Just a few suggestions - I see you have a remote release - how about securing the camera in your car and taking some cool self portraits ? Also what about lunch hour ? Any place you can walk around outside of office ? Maybe a night walk around your house might throw some interesting stuff ?

I used to take a pic only if I found something interesting but with the 365, I have started "finding" interesting things to photograph which I normally wouldnt have ! (If that makes any sense

)

I too feel short on ideas...so I ask everybody I meet for ideas...hubby gave me the nest idea...a neighbor walking his dog suggested sites around town...which I have already taken but hand held night shots. So I am thinking...redo the shots with tripod...just because I did a shot previous to 365...does not mean I cannot try to do it better...just a few quick things...and if anyone has any ideas to share on this panel...hit me with your best shot!!! love, dame

I agree. One of the reasons I joined was to move me away from only taking pictures at sporting events. I was apprehensive about sticking to a theme but have found that it has forced me to think outside the box (or in my case field!). I never look at the pictures posted for the assignment on DPS and try not to look at the Flickr ones until the end of the week because I want to force myself to come up with the ideas. So far so good, I think, but my teenage girls are of the collective mind that I am too "deep" for them (i.e., the stoplight picture).

I did 2 for today because I don't think I'll be able to go out tomorrow. Here's my favorite of the two:

Hmm.....aas soon as flickr works for me again, I'll post my entry for today.

Edit: It took me 15 minutes to get this uploaded. I kept getting a 'bonk' error.

I had several good shots for the in the city assignment all from the one day, but i'd like to try to take a new photo every day unless I'm sick or away, so I've posted a few of them in share your shots under The Grand Old Lady. (in case you'd like to see them.)
