Recently I’ve noticed quite a few people doing a task that I tried about 4 years ago. To take a photo every day. It doesn’t have to be a good photo or an arty photo, just something to show what I did that day.
I lasted a few months last time. This time I’m going to try a year.
I’m using blipfoto.com, a website where I can only upload one photo a day. My profile is blipfoto.com/drl
Lets see how I get on. I won’t promise anything.

I saw this this morning over on James Cridland’s blog. Combines two, if used well, amazing techniques. Tilt-shifting and time lapse photography to create a video of New York at work and at play. But it’s neither the tilt-shift or the the time-lapse that does it for me, it’s the timing of the music and the visuals.
The Sandpit from Sam O’Hare on Vimeo.
I tried my hand at creating a tilt-shift photo a few years back.
I could spend a good few hours browsing through the tilt-shift group on Flickr. But I have things to be getting on with.

Since I announced the other week that we were thinking about heading over to Canada in twelve months time for a whole year, you’d be amazed how many people I have spoken to who have either been to Canada, know someone in Canada or would love to go to Canada. Mostly all think that it is a great idea.
Emma is the one who’s been doing the planning. She’s been sitting down night after night working out the best ways of getting visas, how to get there, how long to spend in each place, accomodation, employment, things to do, people to see. She has had exams to study for which is why I think she’s been putting so much effort in to Canada, or anything that would take her mind of university.
Having done all her vast amounts of research so far, she is one hundred percent convinced that Canada is a good idea.
I too am one hundred percent convinced that Canada is a good idea, and I’ve only done one piece of research. I found this photo of Vancouver smothered in fog and it convinced me.
Can I move abroad for a year on the basis of one photo? Seeing as I am easily convinced on most things, I’m prepared to give it a go.

1.09am – it’s not quite as light as being at home, but I suppose it will have to do.

In a perfect world there would be three of me and I could do everything I needed to do in the time limits I have…
Finally figured how to do this in Photoshop! Still not figured how to do it in real life.
