This is a one-year photo-a-day project called 52 Weeks of Photography. Even though it is a year-long undertaking, I’m taking it one week at a time, because it’s a little easier to manage many small blocks than one large chunk. This is the 14th week, so the 14th set of seven images.
The reason why I’m doing this 365 Day project is because I noticed some gaps in-between my images last year. I didn’t pick up my cameras daily. On several occasions, four or five days passed by without a single picture created. Twice in 2024, I skipped a whole week. I want to rectify this, and get back into the habit of daily photography. I also want to elevate the quality of my craft in 2025, and am hoping that this will help.
The plan is to capture a year’s worth of notable images, either personally or artistically. Ansel Adams famously stated, “Twelve significant photographs in any one year is a good crop.” It’s important to keep expectations realistic, but I’m also trying to avoid thoughtless snapshots just to fulfill the day’s requirement. I want to push myself to be better, and hopefully that will happen. Not every photo will be great—in fact, most won’t—but I hope they are all at least decent enough to be shared without embarrassment. And maybe when the whole project is complete, there will be 12 significant pictures (out of the 365) that I’m particularly proud of.
While the previous week was easy for this project, this week was difficult. It started out with some serious jet-lag. Then some of us got sick. Then my family participated in a 72 hour film challenge. All four of my kids are in a creative arts club, which hosts an annual film challenge. The kids form teams, which could be with their peers (which is what my two oldest did last year) or with their family (what they decided on this year… although the two girls were also on another team). So we had 72 hours to write, record, edit, and submit a five minute short film. Then we had an additional 24 hours to make a trailer and poster. All of the films will play in a local movie theater later this month, and sometime after that I’ll share our video in a post, for anyone who might be interested. Making this short film was in addition to all the “normal” things that go on day-to-day, so finding time for photography was difficult on a few of the days.
Without further ado, below are the 14th set of seven pictures from this 52 Weeks of Photography project.
