I'd mentioned before that I wanted to try Project 365 this year. :) I had also loosely thought about doing 1 photo a week, but this seemed like too few to me.
Anyone who's read any of my posts knows that I am not a daily kind of blogger. Nor am I a daily kind of photographer. So, how do I combine the two?
I came up with a solution that suits me to a T and I wanted to share it with those of you who might be considering the project. We're only 1 week into the new year, so you can still catch up OR you can just start from right now. :)
My solution? I will not force myself to take a photo every day. Instead, at the end of the week, I will choose my 7 favorites and then post those. It has really helped me take the stress out of this challenge. And yes, I view Project 365 as a challenge. Some people are more diligent and self-motivated than others. Not me. I need lots of encouragement and I have to talk myself into doing most things. I weigh every project in my mind and I only set out to do those that I truly believe I can make time for.
So, in honor of the first week of 2010, here are my favorite images. I will try to post these every Friday. :)

I am really happy with the way these turned out. I decided to give my photos a bit of a vintage/faded wash to help them all blend well together.
Next up? Trying to come up with a way to get these into an album. This has really got me inspired. But who doesn't she inspire? ;)
What projects are you trying to tackle this year?
