One month in - For the past month I have been posting a Photo A Day: to what effect?

I certainly have achieved quantiy (if not quality). As a result of this little project, March has been far and away my most prolific month with over 6,000 shots taken (which means that less than 1% made this blog). My big days were no bigger but even on my slow days I was capturing over 100 images.

So what happens with quantity? One thing that sets in is boredom. I am now officially bored of the street portraits taken in a horizontal to provide context. Yes, I still take them and yes, they still often work but for now I am finding them boring. This is not a bad thing, if I can use it to break through and be more creative. The answer is to experiment more and play. Some shots here reflect that, but not as many as should. I think I will play more with out-of-focus shots where the shape and colors become the subject.

The blog has not, however, become a forum. While I have received a few of encouraging comments (all appreciated), I really have no idea how many people are checking in. Unlike my smugmug site, there are no counters for visits available.

So here it is. If you have been checking in and would like to see this continue, jot a reaction to what you have seen. I have made it easy because you don't need to register with blogspot but include your name so I know who wrote it. With your reactions I will know if this is worth keeping up.
