I thought of doing 2010 Project 365 while taking photos of dried flowers in a nearby vacant lot before New Year’s Day lunch with the in-laws.

At first I thought it would be easy to do for even if I don’t get out of the house for a year, I’m  sure I am going to find  365 things to take photos of. Turned out this 2010 project 365 is quite difficult, hrhrhrhr.

This early I have to think of ways on how to take photos of sunset in various strategic locations and of food served arranged for aesthetic purposes. When I am out, I look for interesting things to take photos of, discreetly of course, lest I be branded as voyeur. People, couples, flowers, trees, food, even exit signs and buildings.

Not that I am complaining, I am not :)

Hmmm… as I have said, the real challenge is how I “see” with my eyes and with my camera the things I want to capture. I must say my 2010 Project 365 is like my photodiary.

I wrote in my about Pixie Pixels Photo Stories page that:

I am not concerned with highfalutin photography terms nor do I aim to take a picture perfect photo, I just want to have fun capturing images and telling the stories behind such images.

Susie Salmon said exactly what my thoughts were when I decided to do 2010 Project 365 in the book and movie “The Lovely Bones”:

“I had rescued the moment by using my camera and in that way had found a way to stop time and hold it. No one could take that image away from me because I owned it.”
