not sure if i can do a 365 project, but a weekly project might just be what i need to get motivated to go out and shoot. i had my DSLR for 2 years and i never really go out and just shoot around. Anyone have any motivation tips?

Here's my tip.

You probably paid $500+ for a cam + add-ons. Go out and use it.


lol, but yea bruh. use the cam!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adobo....nice shots. Those pics look so damn clear.

I think I am in a photo funk as well. I can't believe I am saying this but I feel like I am losing interest in photography. Maybe it's cause I have been using the same equipment for a while and don't really want to invest into a new camera or lens.

I took these over the weekend but this was the first time I took my camera out in like 2 weeks and I only brought out my camera that night cause I was told to.

Great photos FongStarr.

 

[livemyreality]

^ Those are great FongStarr...I was walking around the Ferry Building and tried taking some shots...None of them turned out like yours =( What lenses do you use?

 

[Fong$tarr]

I use the Nikon 35mm 1.8G and Nikon 10.5mm fisheye and A LOT of photoshop. I get shots to a certain degree and touch them up all in photoshop.

I'm gonna start it Jan, 1st, 2011. We should get a group of people together and start it at the same time. to keep us motivated.

I'm planning the same thing with my GF. We're both starting a new 365 on Jan 1. I wanna become a better strobist.

That's at the Aquarium By The Bay at Pier 39.

Honestly, not worth the money (I had a company party there) but it is in a convenient touristy spot in SF. Go to the Academy of Science if you can. Worth the money and they have more interesting things to look at:
