WreckitWhippet Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I just wanted to say thankyou to everyone, for your kind critiques and encouragement. I've not commented on individual photo's but have taken inspiration from many of them and have really enjoyed looking at them. I'm thrilled with some of the pics I've managed this month and I've really learnt to think more when taking the pics and I'm really proud that I took some that required no editing at all Onwards and upwards and I'm looking forward to Feb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I would like to thank everyone for your encouragement and say how much I've enjoyed seeing all your photos and thanks to Ashanali for suggesting it in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashanali Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 I just want to thank everyone for embracing this challenge. I know for some (myself included) a photo a day is difficult to commit to. I am actually impressed that I managed about 20 out of 31. :p I have photos from a couple of days that weren't posted - one because I didn't download it until the following week and another because even though it's a good photo, it contains some explicit language (wall of graffiti). I am so impressed with the way many of you have approached the challenge and made your own personal goals. I have loved a 'month of Chester' (including the self portrait ) and I have also loved 'ILTBY's month of macro'. I think there are a few here who have made great improvements with their photography over the month, the three that spring to mind straight away are tlc, PPS and lea. Overall I have enjoyed and loved seeing the vast array of work that EVERYONE has produced from simple shots in their home, of their dogs and general domestic life to getting out and about and doing things they wouldn't have normally done if it wasn't for the challenge. The treasure hunt list for February has been posted. Hopefully Troy will be nice and pin the thread for us again. I just want to say thank you to everyone for making this a success and I hope you have all enjoyed it as much as I have. See you in the February thread! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
