Noor’s Blog
As of today’s photo, I’m officially at the halfway point of Project 365. I have taken 183 photos and have 182 more to go. Even though there are days when I’m not feeling creative and I’m at a loss for photo ideas, I’m really glad I joined the project. It’s been really fun to look through the past 183 days’ photos, especially since this past year has been all about change for me. Aside from documenting the mundane details of my life, the project has been a really fun way to connect with other people (most of whom I don’t know in real life).
If I ever have kids, this is the sort of thing I’d love to share with them (”there was a time when I was young and had way too much time on my hands . . . “). Then again, I do show my nieces my flickr photos — they usually request photos of OJ & Mulder (since OJ permanently hides under the bed when they’re around, seeing OJ on flickr is usually the closest they ever get to him).

I am blown away by your follow-through - not just with this project - it seems like you’re just great at tackling anything and everything and making it happen! And apparently I have some pent up desire to give a job reference…but seriously, consider me impressed!

I’m also happy you are part of the project. We live in the same area and find it wonderful that so many of us are showing the varieties of scenery, lifestyles, and perspectives of our daily lives.
And I enjoy the kitty pics too :-)

Way to stick it out! I’ve got to be near the halfway mark too now, but I’m a little behind due to film processing issues… I’m honestly impressed by all of us who manage to devote the daily attention to this sort of project.
I can’t help thinking at moments that it would be awesome if I could get myself to spend a few minutes every day on something more “meaningful,” but for me, photography is a sort of meditation on life. Meaningful enough to bother, anyway!
I have to wonder what I’ll think of this project in 5 or 10 years–probably the sort of thing you mention, “back when I had too much time on my hands,” even though it doesn’t seem that way right now! It’s been an eventful year and it will be nice to have a record of it.
