About Project 365

Thanks for stopping by my blog! This is Year 2 of my Project365 blog. What is a Project 365? It's a photo challenge involving people from all over the world posting one photo per day throughout 2011. Some photographers choose themes, however for now my photos will be totally random. I will be shooting with my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi-18-55mm, 75-300mm zoom and 100mm 2.8 macro lenses. I edit in iPhoto and Photoshop Elements 9. Not all photos are "perfect"; the purpose is to make photography an everyday event.

I am not a professional. Photography has always been a diversion of mine. I am a primary grade teacher and passionate tech. enthusiast. I consider myself an experienced amateur with LOTS to learn!

You will find links to other photographers in the sidebar- do check them out! I have also joined the Flickr EdTech 365/2011 Group, and you can click this link to view the entire pool. I will be posting my photos to their group pool, as well as here on my photo blog. I welcome your constructive criticism!

Guidelines

1. Photos are to be taken in 2011.
2. Post your own work only.
3. Images may be edited or unedited- your choice.
4. Keep your images, text, and comments appropriate for all ages.
5. HAVE FUN!

Day 19- Chrome Branch

Believe it or not, this is a branch outside my allergist's office! I went for my allergy shot this morning on the lookout for a pic of the day. Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed with the shot once I got it downloaded this evening. So... what a great opportunity to start experimenting with Photoshop Elements. (Figured I couldn't make it any worse!) This is an effect called "chrome", and I thought it made it look pretty funky!

    Funky. Way to make the best of your shots (both of them).

    Wow, really interesting. Sure looks like liquid metal, or I can see a lizard shape there, too. Should venture into experimenting with some effects myself - thank you for the inspiration!

    A cool abstract. Even the amazing Bert Monroy says the best way to learn Photoshop is to play! I guess you know that being a teacher.
