MY365

Hello Miskan, I just found out today, 1/ 2/2009, about your website. I found it by mistake. Starting to view the website. I just wanted to make contact and let you know that I am very impressed about your 365 project. And I woul love to contact you again. I'm knew to flick as well. - Earl J
MY365 by miskan.
So this is it. Its been one fucking long year since I started this project and now its over. I am flipping through all my pictures trying to figure out what to say but I can't think of anything. It was fun and I am kinda glad its over since it was allot of pressure trying to find something to shoot everyday but I will miss it thats for sure. I will continue to post on my blog 2:48AM but as of today Miskan is over. I will keep the site up, I won't shut it down, if anything I might redesign it into something allot cooler.

When I first started this project it wasn't meant to be shared, it was supposed to be a private thing I was going to do for myself, but in the end I decided to upload my pictures nightly and share them with everyone hoping that your motivation would keep me going and it did. I know Nat is going to be glad this is over since I no longer have to drag her out of the house randomly to go shoot something. She did play an important role in Miskan though and she deserves credit for being patient with me and helping me out whenever I needed help.

I am most probably going to end up publishing this project in form of a book. A friend of mine who recently published a book is going to hook me up with his publisher. If that doesn't work out I will just publish it myself on my own account. If anyone wants a copy of the book just leave a comment below and I will contact you and mail you a copy whenever it gets done.

Today is the last day and I decided to end it with a self portrait. The theme is "Abduction". I hope you enjoyed the project, thank you and good bye. Today is day 365 of the project..

Finally we saw you. u have made a great job. It is really hard to take pictures filled with subjects everyday for a whole year. I guess non-Kuwaitis learned more about Kuwait thru their 1 year visits to ur photostream. It is sad when u have an end to a great thing.

I'll miss reading these posts every day - it's sad to think that the year is over.

I'd be interested in the book idea as well, and it's good to know 2:48 will keep going.

Thanks.

Mark,

I just want to congratulate you for this wonderful achievement. I enjoyed looking through your pictures daily. I do see a big improvement since the day you started the project; you have created what many photographers and artist dream for ... your own unique style. The composition of your photos has been great all along; the lighting “effect” in your shots is breath taking.

I salute you for your creativity above anything else.

I hope you have a great anniversary!
Best Wishes, and good luck,
Your friends @ KuwaitPhotoLab
