In August 2009, photo guru and business master Scott Bourne issued me a challenge. If I was serious about improving my photography, I’d take 3 actions daily… for a year.
The result: improve my photography 300%.
The actions:
- Take at least 1 photo every day.
- Read at least 1 page in my camera manual every day.
- View other professional images every day.
Never one to back down (after all, I was voted “Most Daring” on my high school dance team), I took the challenge and here I am. I started taking the 3 actions every day starting Tuesday, August 18. However, after seeing the new release Julie & Julia, I was inspired to chronicle my photography challenge with a new blog. Due to my slight OCD tendencies, starting on the first of the month was very appealing, so…
September 1st marked the official launch of the challenge: 365 days to improve my photography 300%. I’m chronicling the journey in photos and camera manual pages right here at tasra365. I’ll also give updates on Twitter and Facebook.
Are you with me? You can join (even if you don’t have a blog) by signing the list. I’ll feature your images and journey along with mine throughout the year.
Note: When asked if others could join, Scott Bourne replied, “I think everyone should join in!” How’s that for motivation?!!
