About Day2Day- Take Five Ordinary Beauty.

A daily challenge for the amateur photographer.
Have you become lazy? want to become better and just enjoy photography in general?. Set yourself a daily challenge that can be accomplished in seconds and encourages you to see the beauty in your surroundings and embrace the imperfect.
Simply take One photograph every day from Monday to Friday. The subject and composition is up to you but I would encourage you to use manual settings and natural light on your camera wherever possible. Add your photo to the pool tagging it "day to day" and blog a few lines about your shot, either on flikr or on your own personal blog. You might choose to look at a theme over the five days, blogging them all as a set or choose random daily snapshots into your surroundings. The beauty of a short series of five is that you can choose to focus on one thing and aim to perfect it using different settings if you choose. You might even want to do a week dedicated to improving your etsy listing snaps.
We are not photography snobs here!. Any camera is a good camera!. we are about interesting effects, simple styling and making mistakes. No subject is too dull or too simple.
I wont be strict with myself about the posting every day but I will aim to see the beauty in the ordinary and blog about it as much as I possibly can. Part of this is to get over my regular blogging hang ups- to slow down and to make mistakes. I hope this will soon become part of your day to enjoy. Dont forget to date your work!!.
