John finished his 365 back at the end of December with this shot

John's 365 was a pleasure to follow with a diverse portfolio of shots. He kindly agreed to answer our finisher interview questions and choose some of his favourites from his project.

1.) What inspired you to begin your 365 Project?

My son is a keen photographer as am I and at the end of 2009 we both purchased Canon 5D mark II cameras. As they are quite complicated we decided to take on a 365 project in order to get to know the cameras. It certainly worked for both of us.

2.) How would you describe your photography in just a few words?

I trained as a photographer in the RAF over 55 years ago and have had an interest ever since.

3.) What surprised you the most about doing the 365 project?

I did not think it would be so difficult to work out what to take every day. I am retired and found it difficult but how busy people manage, I have no idea.

4.) What did you learn during the course of your project?

The main thing I learned, apart from the camera workings, was that the most important thing is the idea behind the picture.

5.) Do you have an interesting story about taking one of your 365 photos that you would like to share?

The most popular photo that I took was one highlighted by the Flickr site. It had a lot of hits and people commented about the composition and how I had done well to get a "jogger" in it. It was just luck and taken through the windscreen of my car.

6.) What are your future photography plans?

I wanted a rest before starting another 365 but have started the ODC group which I like. I might start another 365 when I go to South Africa in April.

Congratulations to MarianneLoMonaco!

Congratulations to Marianne, who completed her 365 project on December 31 with this photo:


Marianne's project is filled with a variety of color, nature and scenery. Below is her finisher's interview:

What inspired you to begin your 365 Project?
I had seen on flickr that people were titling their photos with numbers; I didn’t understand what it meant and at the time I hadn’t heard of a project365. When I learned about the project it seemed like a fun thing to do and I thought it would be good way to force myself to be creative every day. Also, a few people I knew said they were going to do it, so once I was really sure I would commit I decided that I would go for it too.

How would you describe your photography in just a few words?
It's about the details, really pretty natural light and blur.

What surprised you the most about doing the 365 project?
That people liked my photos. I was really surprised by all the positive feedback that I got right away from people that knew me and from total strangers. I wasn’t expecting it at all. It gave me more confidence and I started to trust my instincts more.

What did you learn during the course of your project?
I finally learned how to use my camera. I had my DSLR for under a year before starting my project and I didn't know what I was doing. My old camera was such a jerk, it used to randomly shut off when I’d press the shutter. I also learned a different way of seeing the world. I think there is beauty everywhere, even gross parking lots. I also taught myself how to use Photoshop, before that I was doing easy edits with Picnik.

What are your future photography plans?
Aside from selling prints on Etsy I'm doing a 52 week project. I'm also trying to put together a book of my 365. And I would really like to step out of my comfort zone this year and do more street photography.

Congrats again to Marianne! Here are a few admin favorites along with a slideshow of her completed project.
