Eek it's September already!

The last few years, some of us have done this little project where we take and post a photo every day for the month of September. Doesn't have to be a good photo, or an artistic photo... just a photo every day for a month.

I like doing it because it makes me look at the world for interesting pictures, and because it's fun to see what everyone else posts.

You're welcome to join in! Just join the Flickr group September I'll Remember and upload a picture every day.

Monday is the first day of September, and that means our month-long photo-taking project starts again!

The challenge: take and post precisely one photograph every day for the month of September.

If you want to participate, here's how you do it:

1. Join Flickr if you haven't already. Basic membership is free, and you can login with your Yahoo ID.


2. Go to our Flickr group page and click "Join This Group" at the top


3. Go find your camera and make sure your battery's charged! :-)


4. Start taking pictures on Monday. Every day, upload one to Flickr and post it to the September I'll Remember pool. (That should be an option when you upload the picture.)


5. Check out (and comment on) other people's pictures! Edit: You can also follow the photostream in your very own LJ friends list by friending the syndicated feed at septillremember.

Because I suck, the LJ syndication link I posted does not work.

This one should: septillremember

A couple weeks ago I started speculating about what kind of creative/communicative daily project I would do, if I were to do one.

Today I have an answer. Each day of September, my friend Leland and I are going to try to take, and post, a photo. It seems like a good starting point for a foray into creative challenges, and if I like doing it, I may take on different challenges in subsequent months.

I'll be setting up an LJ community or Flickr group tomorrow so you can all see what we come up with. (Suggestions are welcome as to which forum would be better, and what I should call the thing.) Also, if anyone else would like to participate, let me know!
