Well it’s July 1st and the list for 26 things is up and here they are:

love ? you ? food ? new ? animal ? scape ? sound ? construction ? home ? time ? transport ? light ? water ? colour ? signage ? numbers ? authority ? symmetry ? empty ? a sunset ? weather ? communication ? little things ? footwear ? money ? monument

I’ve also set up a new site/blog to put them on.  As you can see there are no entries yet ‘cos I’ve decided to not use any of my old photos for the project.

Just got home from my photoshoot and thought I would post this one.  Not hugely impressed with the G3 after 5 hours shooting today.  I’m off out for another hour or two soon and we’ll see how we go after that Now I remember why I went DSLR – the focusing is sooooooooooooo sloooooooooowwwwww………

PS: There are 12 original, straight out of the camera files in this instantlogic.com album. Don’t forget the originals are 1-2 MB each so if you’re on a dial up line you might want to think twice about clicking on the link to the original size image

Update: here’s a couple from an evening trip to the beach

2.5 sec @ f/8.0 with 3 stop ND filter (built in to the camera!)

It looks pretty crap this small here’s a bigger one

A friend of mine has just bought a new digital camera…. not so exciting you say but here’s the funny bit.  She works for a government department and has asked me to use the camera over the weekend and then go in on Monday morning and give her 12 strong team a Canon G3 digital photography 101 type course.

Perfect timing! Vic and Max are away this weekend (it was very lonely in the house last night :() but I have a new toy to play with and keep me occupied – yay!

Given that the weather is supposed to be quite nice today it’s off into town for a day of photography and coffee 😮
