Challenge is over! Successfully! I celebrated it with Coca Cola. This bottle is from our USA trip. Bottled at the world of Coca-Cola, Atlanta, GA. I kept it for the special occasion. During my last photo shoot, somebody wanted to share my happiness.

PS! This is a public service announcement, NOT a paid commercial. Public service part is found in showing the maximum amount of Coca-Cola (or other fizzly sugar drowned soft drinks) we recommend drinking in a single month.

My first macro photo of an eye. I know this is not the best of its kind, but I love it. Because it's my ffffirst. This was definitely one thing I wanted to try. I used my new lens Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro for the shot.

It was quite difficult to shoot being in front of the camera. This was the 25th shot. Not cropped.

It's funny how window frame is around the pupil. The white area doesn't look good, so it can be improved. There was not enough light.

I also found out that there is two brown spots in my right eye. Interesting! Why? I don't know!

OK, this is an exaggeration. Month is almost over and I'm thinking - should I continue or not. I would like to because I have learned some new stuff and it has also been really fun and interesting. Feedback has been also good.

But... it takes too much time, so I'll probably stick with one month. I should focus my energy and time on something else.

Just to make sure, this project has not been about how I look in front of the camera. All the photos has been made by me, planned and executed. The problem was I didn't have any other person who was patient enough to try 5 different ideas, because first 4 did not work or make 50 shots because smth was not right. Wanted to try some new ideas and did it.
