1×52, Week 10: k8ee as a start-your-own-photo-project

Week 10′s project is simple: I converted the main theme of my photoblog from promoting my own work, to inspiring others to start photoblogs, too.

k8ee.com is a daily photo project I started back in May. I wanted to learn photography, and thought that a good way to learn might be to start a photoblog – and try to post a new photo every day. That’s not quite as taxing as it sounds – I don’t actually have to take a photo every day, since I can schedule posts. It’s just enough to push me to keep taking photos regularly – taking my camera along for hikes and visits to the farmer’s market. I’ve really enjoyed this project! I get a lot of joy from taking photos, and looking back through them, processing them in Photoshop to improve even more. And then getting to see every day what photo is posted. :)

Anyway, enough about me – this has been a cool and successful enough project that it’d be fun to encourage others to do the same. :) So, I started changing around the pages and languages, adding content to more center the site around inspiring others. I added a “Learn with Me” page. It includes reasons why I really liked this project for myself, plus books and resources to start a photoblog like mine. I included details about the software I used for the site  - WordPress, as for this one, with the Autofocus theme – to help point people in the right direction if they’re interested.

If you’d like to start your own photoblog and have more questions about the setup, please ask me!  :)
