Daily Photo At...

Just a few days ago I came back to blogspot to see how the blogosphere was hanging on, and ended up browsing through the past posts.

Remembered the days when I tried my 365 project, how I was motivated and excited about it. How the World was different during those days.

So I decided to try it again. This time, I'd start it slow. One month of photos, the first month of Spring, April in Portugal seemed just right. But then I thought... What if I share this project with other people? If I miss a day, someone will most certainly have time for a shot and could submit it; and the daily journal would be complete.

Thus, "A Daily Photo At" was born!

The project was born from the will to practice photography more regularly. For it, I adopted recommendations that are normally used for the Gym:

1. Set a realistic objective.
2. Get someone to go with you. It's easier if you have someone cheer and pull for you.
3. Go, even if it's just for a short exercise, it's better then not going at all.

"A Daily Photo At" is collaborative photography blog where we use monthly challenges as incentive, and learning and sharing as motivation.

We started on the 1st of April, slowly but surely, and curiously, most photos have been taken with mobile cameras. That means that it's working! It doesn't matter if you don't own the state of the art DSLR, we don't care. What we do care is that we're paying attention. 

Visit  http://photoat.tumblr.com/ and let me know your thoughts. There you'll find FAQ's , Rules and the ongoing Challenge. Perhaps you'd even like to participate? If not, you can always follow the blog for a "daily digest" of images, information, and who knows... Inspiration?

P.S.: Why Tumblr and not Blogspot? Well, mainly because of flexibility. The themes allow to almost disguise a blog as a website and people can easily submit posts even if they don't have an account.
