Join me for a βDecember Dailyβ Photography Challenge!
Can you believe it? Only 44 days left until the end of the year!
Around this time, I'm often thinking about what I wish I'd done differently the last 11 months, and what I can do better in the next one.
With regard to photography, there is one area I still struggle with and that is shooting consistently.
There can sometimes be weeks in between each time I pick up my camera, and that lack of consistency hurts my creativity,....which in turn means every photo I take seems blah and uninteresting....which in turn means I'm less motivated and less likely to pick up my camera.
Vicious circle in action right there :)
So I want to make a change, starting now πͺ
I'm committing to taking 31 days of photos in December - and I want to bring you along with me! π
