Having corresponded with Sime, I've set up a sister group called fiftytwo, which you can read more about on these forums.

You will doubtless learn more by sticking with the 365 challenge but if that seems too daunting (or you make a good effort but can't keep up) come and join fiftytwo instead.

You know...this does sound like fun. I'm gonna have to talk to my BF about it too. We can jump in together.

threesixtyfive | Day 3, originally uploaded by Kunal Daswani.

threesixtyfive is coming along nicely, we have 57 members and a load of photos so far. The group continues to grow slowly...

It's been an interesting process this first week, with people starting with very "safe" shots - with the odd exception of one or two showing a bit more about themselves.

My photos have pretty much been scary, dark shots with a smile creeping in on day four to balance things up a little.

I don't like smiling in photos, I don't like my teeth basically... I'll get over it!

Well, 357 photos to go, will give you another update next week!..

Notables for me, from this week include....

thresixtyfive | day eight
The Hair Cut | Day 6
Day 6 - By the Light of My Computer




See y'all next week and thanks!... this is fun, right...

I hate smiling too - my eyes disappear. I have really enjoyed the challenge of this so far - trying to frame a shot when the subject isn't there is a bit tricky though. Only 51 weeks to go....

Yes, it is quite fun. Stresses me out sometimes though! But it's all good.


So far.

Try chuckling to your self as you take the picture - I found it gives a more natural looking smile than actually trying to smile.

The threesixtyfive, like the fiftytwo is coming along just nicely!... I thought i'd probably struggle for time, but, am really enjoying it... even getting gutsy enough to post a shot of myself in the shower today...teehee (NO... it's not what you think!) ....Anyways!... we have 62 members and 373 photos in the pool so far!... Come join the fun, or, if you still think it's too much - join fiftytwo - Best of both worlds!!!...
