Day 26 of 365 days.
I’ve had an idea for an ambitious idea for a heavily photoshopped photo for a while. I was going to do it yesterday, but then I got caught up in working on my novel. I did that til like 3am and decided I’d go to bed and take the picture when I woke up so I could work on it after work.

Then the troubles began. I overslept and had to rush to get to work on time, so I never got to take the picture this morning. Then after work I drove all the way across town to get my comics only to be reminded that Labor Day was this week, so everything was delayed a day and they weren’t even there. On top of that, I forgot that it’s Poker Night, so I won’t even have time to work on a picture anyway. I was beginning to jokingly think I wouldn’t even have time to eat dinner and then I remembered that one of my backup picture ideas was to take a shot of me eating dinner and so here it is.

I’m beginning to run out of backup ideas, I need to really get some creative pictures in soon or we seriously are going to get to me just doing 11:59 cameraphone portraits.

This would be so much easier if I were a hot chick. If anyone looks at my photoshoot or portrait sets, you’ll probably agree that I am so much better at taking pictures of sexy women than I am of photographing myself. And really, who wants to see 365 pics of my ugly mug anyway?

    we do! and this was your idea so stop your complaining…they don’t have to be creative everyday…some days you just plain don’t feel creative, some days you just wanna "be"…so just go with that. after the year is up you’ll know which days were which, maybe you’ll find some weird pattern about what days you’re most creative on…maybe you’ll find that every third wednesday is a GREAT day for inspiration…of maybe not. anyway…thanks for starting the group…it’s a real eye opener! hope you enjoyed your chinese…and WIN BIG!

    yeah, that came across as a lot whinier than I really meant it to be. Don’t mind me, I’m kind of using this as a daily diary. As I mentioned before I want to bind all my pics in a book when I’m done, and my little descriptions and stories are mostly notes to future me of August 2007 as starter text for the captions when I write that.

    I don’t regret starting the group at all, and in fact I’m quite happy with my progress and the process in general. And quite happy with everyone else’s work too. I’m having a blast with it. I do just feel like I’m being lame when I don’t have something that I consider great to put up. Its just me being more critical on myself than I am on others, or than others are on me. I want every single pic to make people say wow.

    It’d be so much easier with boobs. 🙂

    I have done a good naked picture in a while. Maybe one of those will come up soon. But not tomorrow, or probably not. Because I’m going to start working on tomorrow’s pic in 24 min.
