365 self portraits. Can I actually do it? Inspired by many others, I decided to give my creativity a kick in the pants with a Daily Photo project. With life happening too fast, quite often I lose the spark that drives me to pick up the camera. Hopefully I can maintain not only this project, but the ability to develop more as a photographer. Ideally, the majority of these will be self-portraits to help me get over my image complex and to document the most important, memorable moments of each day.
My rules:
1. At least part of myself in each shot. Every 24 hours.
2. EXIF data pulls rank. I travel and can't always upload on a timely matter, but the timestamp is as the timestamp does...
3. Try to document the dominant activity/event of the day. This is a journal-type project for me, too.
4. Having help is OK. While I always set up the shot myself, occasionally the location requires having someone else hit the shutter for me.

Saturday evening at the movies. This is a record - so far this year I've actually physically been inside a movie theater three times. This is more than I have gone in the last 5 years, total.
Not quite as rare is the sight of the three of us friends hanging out. Good times, good times. And I got a huge kick out of (1) Matt pimpin' us on each arm but (2) the fact that on a whim I took out my camera, braced it on his knee and by sheer luck got the perfect SP of the day in the first and only shot.
