Hi everyone, I hope you and yours are doing well. I am a little late posting this week. At the beginning of January I was 'encouraged' by a fellow photography group member to do another 52x2 photo project - 52 weeks - 2 photos a week - one colour and one mono. It is certainly a good way of keeping up your photography practise and actively looking for things to photograph.
And trying mono photography too. Mono is black and white - or shades of one colour - for instance you could have a photo which is all shades of blue. I wrote more about mono photography in a previous blog post - click on the link highlighted in the previous sentence.
I did a 52x2 in 2015 and also a couple of 365's - a photo every day! - in 2014 and 2020-21 during the Covid pandemic.
I am certainly not going to make any promises about keeping the project up for a whole year - but I have made a start - here are the first 4 weeks - January 1-28th.
It's been very hot - so we haven't been far from home in January.
Week 1 - colour - for the '50' topic for photography group -
Week 1 - mono - agapanthus - from below -Week 3 - colour - sunset over the Leschenault Estuary -
Week 4 - colour - Australia Dray fireworks over Koombana Bay in Bunbury
Week 4 - mono - enamel plates and cup on the sink!
Bonus shot - week 4 - dragon boat regatta hosted by the Forza Dragon Boat Club in Bunbury
That's it from me for this week. Have you ever done a photo a day project?
Thank you so much for stopping by. I value your comments and look forward to hearing from you. I will try to visit your blogs in return. Have a wonderful week.

ReplyDeleteThese are such lovely photos! I rarely think to take photos in mono but I do love how they look.
ReplyDeleteYour shots are great, Jill! I think I've never done a photo a day or week project, but most of the days or weeks in my life I'm taking photos ;-))

well then you should do a project easily!
DeleteJill - I have never done a photo project, but I am currently participating in a weekly stitchalong project, which I am enjoying immensely. Love the firework photo!
ReplyDeletethe stitchalong project sounds great too - especially in winter. Enjoy
DeleteThat sounds like a great project idea. I've never done one. I do like black and white and the hues of brown.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are always fabulous, my friend. I absolutely adored the old spoon photos. . .seems to be a pattern these days, the older I get the more I like photos of 'old things'! :-)
ReplyDeleteah yes, I agree about the old things.... :)
DeleteSure, I`m late ... today is enough time to aknowledge your fantastic Post, Jill. I enjoyed reading, because it was very interesting for me.
ReplyDeleteBlack&White captures are very artistically. The enamel plates and cup on the sink is super!
