4th July: peachy Melba

It’s the 4th of July which means happy Independence Day for all my visitors from the US! Hope the cold beers are going down well!

This is also the 185th day of the year which means my Project 365 is officially past the halfway stage and now on the approach to the finish line! Hopefully this will be a gentle descent home but who knows what challenges lie ahead in trying to take a photo a day!

So far I have slipped up just once and I’m determined not to so it again. But it’s not easy! Most days I have an idea of what I will shoot based on my diary, but there have certainly been times when I’ve only realised late in the day that I haven’t taken a photo yet and had to get creative with what I have around me – but maybe that’s what it’s all about?!

Most of my photos have been taken with my trusty iPhone and a collection of apps – namely Best Camera, TiltShift Generator, and AutoStitch. I’ve just downloaded Camera+ which has had rave reviews, and I’ll be upgrading to the new iPhone this month (if stock arrives!) so it will be interesting to see if my style of photos significantly changes in the second half of the year. Ooh, the anticipation, the tension, the drama! Stay tuned to find out what happens next!
