Like most young peaple nowadays, | lave taking photos with my smartphone.
Even before | started the '365 Photos’ project, | took lots of snaps of my family, my pets and sometimes even my dinner! | love the fact that without spending a fortune, you can take excellent photos with a smartphone, which you can then share on sacial media ~ something | also really enjoy doing! But most of all | Jove the way that you can photograph something at the exact moment you see it. You can capture a moment in time.
When one of my friends told me that she had started the project. | thought it
was a great idea, | wanted to use the photas to create a record of the year for
me to look back on. But what | didn't realise at the start was that it would also make me a better photographer. Now | even want to specialise in photography at art school
| thought that taking a picture every day would be simple, and on some days it was — in fact, it was hard to choose just one picture as there were so many L iked. But on other days all the photos seemed uninteresting and it was quite
stressful to find one that was good enough to keep. It was only when | looked back on the whole year that | saw that some of the simplest shots were the most meaningful
When | finally had my 365 photos, | couldn't believe it had been a whole year.
At the beginning it felt like it would be a very long time but actually, it was over before | knew it ~ time went by really quickly. You would think that | would be glad to have a year of experiences captured on camera, but mostly | felt sorry it was over. | knew | was going to miss it. But looking at all my photos also made me realise that you don’t have to be a really creative person to make art. All it takes is some happy moments — and a smartphone!
