The Premise

The idea for this whole photo journal thing spawned from an old high school friend who ended up in a different university than I did. This winter break, between mismatched school schedules and Christmas travel plans, we only managed to meet up once. Therefore, it was decided that we'd communicate every day via email, with all of mine including pictures of my trip. A few days into this arrangement, I'd discovered that I quite enjoyed the challenge of finding things to take decent photos of every day. With other friends also expressing their desire to see photos, I decided it might be fun to start a daily photo journal.

This project has several goals. The obvious one is to share photos from my travels with people who want to see them, without clogging their inboxes. By continuing once I return to school, I will be encouraged to spend some time with my new camera every day, which will hopefully help my skills improve. Another side effect of daily photography means that I'll have to become creative in my subject matter, and really search for the unique perspective on things.

So here goes. One good photograph a day for an indeterminate amount of time. I can do this, right?
