'V' For Victory

DLK.700
[365: the 2011 Edition]

Day 364/365 - 30/12/11
Unless something bad happens to me tomorrow, I can sing already 'VICTORY'!!! VICTORY!!'
I must say this project was tough, very tough. I am also glad that the year is ending. One more month and maybe I would give up or, at least, I would become crazy for the rest of my life:)

Well, the conclusion:
I have not learnt much about photography, I mean, I still do not know how to deal with the manual settings of the camera. Yes, it is true. I hope to learn it soon. However, I've learnt a lot about framework, how to place the objects in the picture, and about that small edits every photographer does now days (I've never used Photoshop). After thousands of photos I think is natural one learns something.
On the other side, it was a big challenge for my creativity, a way of keep it always awakens. I was obliged to create something everyday. And that does not have price.
An advice for the people who is starting: Yes, it is funny, very funny at beginning; but after a while (in my case after 7/8 months) this project tends to become secondary. The excitement for taking pictures is replaced by the pressure of doing it and unless one is able to revise constantly the good consequences of achieving this goal, it is very easy to give up.
My greatest motivation was something like this: in 10, 20 years time this will be an amazing document of my life (even if most of the pictures are not perfect) and I will be forever grateful for my persistence.
