30 Day Photo Challenge is Back!

Tomorrow marks the first anniversary of the DP Blogs 30 Day Photo Challenge. Last year, a group of us took and posted one picture every day during the month of March. I learned a lot about my own photography and I’m excited to see if my photo style has evolved at all. Sure, I take pictures almost every day, but not that many that I would post on the internet every day! There inlies the challenge.

I begin tomorrow, March 1st with a picture a day. Want to join me?? This is a really ambitious challenge, but what better way to really get the camera back in your hands? If you’re a newcomer to photography, this is the perfect way to start. Here’s what you need to do if you’d like to play along:

  • Take a picture every day
  • Each day, upload your picture to Flickr in the DP Blogs.com Photo Challenges Group
  • Tag your images with ” 30dayphoto “
  • If you like, please also include in your Flickr notes some information about the creation of your image. Let us all learn from your cool pictures.

[I've been sitting here on the couch looking at this post for like 20 minutes deciding if I really want to do this!  If I hit publish, then I'm committed - a whole month of a picture a day...  Do I reeeaaaalllllly want to do this again??  Yes!  No.  Yes!  Oh boy.  Well, if you are reading this, then it looks like I hit Publish...!  Wish me luck!]

[...] The 30 Day Photo Challenge is back — read all about it from Stephanie! Her first photo is great! (To the right.) Even if you missed today, I believe you can still get in! [...]

[...] 5th, 2007 · No Comments I shall be re-entering the photo a day challenge thing. This is Day 1. Those feeling daring goHERE for more info. [...]


[...] [P.S. I took this shot yesterday, but didn’t have time to post it.  I still owe a shot for today, day 6 of the 30 Day Challenge.] [...]


[...] I’m so glad I’m doing the 30 Day Challenge because I had my big camera with me to document this moment. The camera phone just wasn’t going to cut it and a kid’s first slide down the slide is a big deal. Sure, it’s a pain in the neck to lug around in my giant purse [along with the omnipresent sippy cup and of course the baby crack (crackers)]. But it’s definitely worth it. I’m still in the honeymoon phase of the 30 Day Challenge, but I’m almost tempted to extend this challenge long term…? We’ll see how I’m feeling at around Day 23. [...]
