It's that time of year again, and even though I'm a tad late to jump on the bandwagon (well, at least where I live), I've finally decided on a new year's resolution. To improve my photography.
The reason?
Well, after I've finished earning my degree, I really want to get into journalism, especially photojournalism. My top goal is to have something featured in a National Geographic magazine. But to achieve this, I need to get back into my photography. I see a lot go pics that make me go 'hold my beer, I can do that', so I've devised a plan:
Back to Basics.
Every Sunday (weather depending), I aim to travel somewhere close to where I live and take pictures, learning more about photography and camera functions, etc, etc. I aim to have the pictures up by the next day at the latest. By this time next year I hope to look back over my photos and see some improvement.
Now, you guys can help me by critiquing, suggesting locations or simply helping me towards achieving my goal. I'd really appreciate it if you could.
So, yeah. That's my goal. I'll be posting up a lot of pictures over this year (starting with ones I've already taken), so sorry in advance for spamming your newsfeed. I'm also putting this on Facebook, Flickr and Youtube, as well as blogging about what I've learnt. I really hope I can stick to this goal. Let's see where this year takes me
